Hey I just got a new 3in turboback on my 1g with the stock 14b. besides really bad boost creep, I am experiencing jolting and hitting a wall. I still have the stock mas, and it seems to happen in the higher rpm range, could this be fuel cut? Why?
 
Most likely. You're flowing a lot more air now, with the 3" outpipe. You'll need to bump your fuel system so it can keep up, and either grab a VPC or a MAFT and new MAS. I'd go with the latter, as it flows better anyway, and is only about $100 more expensive, all said and done.

So a 255lph HP Walbro (or similar), an AFPR, possibly 550cc injectors, and some method for tuning your air/fuel.


Before that, boost leak test it.
 
or for the time being, what i did was removed the smaller honeycomb on my mas and that will eliminate fuel cut for now, but do what he suggested later if you like.
 
small honey comb is already removed, but all i need it the gm maft for the blow through set up but will that stop fuel cut?
 
along these same lines, if I am logging a run while this happens to my car, I should expect to see a sudden drop to 0 on my o2 volts, right?
I have a real similar setup to the thread starter. now when im running WOT in third, I'll creep up to 17-18psi and hit what I believe is fuel cut
