about a week a go i was driving to school one morning and i went to get up to speed and it accelerated OK until about 30 mph, then it fell on its face. It felt like i hit the brakes it was horrible. My car is a gigantic turd in the mornings, but it only does it in the morning when its cold. My consern is its supposed to be like 27* outside thursday for a high, and its only going to get worse.

My Question is what could be wrong with my car, It wont accelerate, but it only does it when its cold. and it acts like nothing ever happend when it gets above 50.

Any help you guys could give would be great Thanks in advance. Robert
 
i seem to have the same problem...so i tried to accelerate without boost to 4k then spool and it seems like it pulls waaaay harder than normal...it just "hits a wall" until 4k (from 3k to 4k the turbo seems useless)



any ideas?


oh this only does this when it's cold too...and i'm in MN and its like 20 degrees or less outside
