Fuel Cut on 1G AWD

[1993-Talon-TSI]

Is there any way to modify the MAF on a 1G, to eliminate the fuel cut, besides just removing the bottom screen-mesh. I have removed the bottom and was able to run upwards of 21 psi but now that i have put a fmic on the flow has increase due to the increase volume of the intercooler and piping. no i can't run like past 16 psi without the fuel cut hiting???? is there any cheap way to eliminate the fuel cut completly, i have enough tuning devices to monitor the fuel cut, so i can go withiout it and be safe.

It is the worst thing when the engine can run at 21 Psi but the F*&^% computer /MAF won't allow it. also the problem seems to get worst as it gets colder out???

Any help would be greatly Appriciated.

Thanks

Are you Positive you don't have any boost leaks after the new FMIC Install? A boost leak is the main reason why people hit fuel cut early.

You might want to think about switching to a 2g Mas setup.

Sure there is. First, make sure you have no boost leaks anywhere (IC piping, BOV, T/B shaft seals etc.) You can hack the MAS a little bit more by backing out the screw and or even dremel the area where you took out the lower honey comb so it looks like this -->D with the flat part facing up. No fuel cut but I hope you have bigger than 450cc's (+ auxilliary fuel control) and you may get idle problems. On my MAS last year, I completely cut off the lower section. It pulled like crazy and idled just like stock - just make sure you don't run too lean and have a backup MAS just in case you f*ck up somewhere with the hack. One of the sensors is located on the bottom portion of the MAS so be careful not to break it or saw it off.
