I Tried A Few Things From Another Thread But I Still Have This Problem. When Starting The Car It Idles Fine Until Throttle Is Pushed After That The Factory Boost Gauge Dies Out And Cant Step On The Throttle For A Quick Rev. At A Slow Pace It Works Fine And I Can Hear The Turbo Spooling(factory). I Can See That It Has The Boost Level In The Pod Gauge But I Cant Get On The Gas. This Happened During A Rainy Day So Im Hoping Its Just Something That Got Wet. Can This Be A Safc Connection Or Is Something Else Crapping Out? I Hate To See My Car Parked Like This So If Any1 Can Guide Me I Will Gladly Appreciate It.
 
IT WAS A RUSTY CONNECTION IN THE MAF THAT CAUSES IT. I TOOK OUT SOME COPPER WIRE ROLLED IT TO ABOUT 1/2 AN INCH AND RECONNECTED THE MAF PLUG CRUSHING THE WIRE IN THE SLOT HOLW. ITS WORKING JUST FINE FOR NOW BUT IM GONA HAVE TO REPLACE THE OLD RUSTY PART.:toobad:
 
Good thing you resolved it. But a few things: 1. Don't type in all caps, and don't caps the first letter of each word. That's REALLY annoying and hard to read. 2 . Don't bump your posts. You can just edit your first one, if you like.
