So i finally got the DMS running, and at idle it runs like a dream. When i put it in gear and drive, a little past 2K RPM, it shudders and wont get any power. Only happens in gear which just confuses me. Any ideas???
 
+1 Most hesitation/power loss issues can be traced back to a boost leak. Make yourself a tester get some soapy water and go to town.
 
+2 sounds like a boost leak. Listen for hissing and use a spray bottle and soapy water.
 
I will have to give that a check. Thanks i;ll let you guys know how that goes, not alot of time left to work on it though, i'm leaving for iraq and i just want to give her one more stomping before i leave LOL.
