I was at full boost 13ilbs and my j pipe coupler for my fmic blew off car is running terrible and it keeps trying to die out when i give it gas?? Also my temperature gauge is going up and down and goes to operating temperature when im holding the gas a little??? Should I put the coupler baca on??
 
hey man try your best to re-install the coupler that blew off the intercooler ...the car is running like that cause no air flow is being registered at the mas flow sensor ...always travel with simple hand tools that what i do ...good luck dude
 
It's not good to be running the car like that. Best bet is to try to put it back on, if not possible than just try to install something that can pass the air through atleast. Better than no flowing air IMO. Best of luck to you.
 
Yea thanks so much guys im gunna put it on now its not resurculated btw.

would be wise to recirculate as well. my car was not recirculated and fixing that now. It will run rich and try to die on you with every gear change for the most part unless you up the idle or have a program to counter it depending on the computer control you have.
 
Hey alright I wasn't on the iphone it was my friend and I had already put the coupler back on. What about the temp sensor though once everything was back on it stopped bouncing and was at operating temperature. What is the cts?

The coolant temp sensor... Your car was freakin' out man.
 
o alright it might have fell off due to the pressure when the coupler blew off. Thanks everyone for the help.
