Problems at the Dyno

[squeak104]

Alrighty so when I started on my first pull, I brought the revs up to about 3200 to keep it from downshifting (an auto) and put it to the floor and the turbo spooled but the rpms stopped at 4000. After watching the video it sounds like fuel cut and black smoke was coming out the exhaust. Heres the link for the video. Correct me if I'm wrong is it fuel cut?

That wasn't fuel cut. Is the car normal now or is it still acting weird?

 

[squeak104]

It runs fine. I didn't get it into boost much when I left the dyno to three blocks to a parking spot but nothing weird about the drive.

So if it wasn't fuel cut then what was it?

 

[squeak104]

I think I know what the problem was. While I was on the dyno I was watchin the tach not the boost gauge so I'm not for sure how many lbs of boost it was putting out but today I found my lower intercooler pipe blown almost completely off. Sound like a more reasonable reason for my problem?

Well, yeah... a licp that isn't connected is a small problem.

Sounds like that could be the problem, but all you can do is fix it and try again to see if your right... Good luck and post the new numbers once you find out

That was an overly rich condition, not fuel cut. The leaking licp is more than likely the main problem.
