Boost problem!!
« on: 18 March 2012, 09:31 »
I have fitted a k04-001 and a front mount.. Since fitting some times when you get to 3000 rpm the power cuts out.. Is this because I'm yet to fit my 3" MAF and have it mapped?? Or could there be another problem?

Will be having Saab reds 3" TIP and 3" MAF and being mapped next week.. Will this sort it?

Cheers :)

sounds like the ECU is doing it's job and saving your engine for now, it's not ideal to run it like that though. Oh and re those struts, will have them Friday  :wink:
