    Re: Boost Problems?????

    wow, nobody chimed in on this probably because they wanted you to use the "SEARCH" buttom. I will help you out with this though. My guess but just my guess...

    Car before stock...
    Car now new chip...
    car still has stock vac/boost lines and all stock rubber pipes...
    Car has more boost and can't habdle it...

    Just my guess. Do you have a boost gauge and what are you running at vacuum? I would do a boost leak check and see if you are leaking somwhere, you might not know and find somthing under boost, I have found some weird sh**.

    GIAC FXK04 (Hammer) installed with a big fat cell...update, cell has been gone for a long time now but smells like it's running rich.

    Vac line boost leak? Stock DV no good?

    You're going to have to look at your lines and see whats wrong.

    60% of the time, it works EVERY time.
