Hey guys Im having a prob with my car when accelarating hard and when i shift the car stumbles as i get back on the gas and goes rich 10.0 on my logs then clears out and continues to pull like mad till i shift to the next gear and it does the same thing again i have not done a boost leak test although i have replaced my DV because it was leaking at 10psi. I have also replaced the plugs with new oem ones it does this weather im running 28psi or 18. Any ideas ??

 

Holy run-on sentence Batman!

I would do that.

Are you running an atmospheric BOV or just a different DV?

 

I am recirculated with the new valve

 

What are symptoms of a boost leak, the car boosts to 28 easily not sure how far it tapers though.

 

I would post up a log and your maps if they're not vendor purchased. The boost leak test is just to eliminate one possible cause.

 

What would happen if my stock boost solenoid caps were missing would this cause a problem with the ecu im running an EBC and noticed that the caps were gone from the stock solenoid.

 

boost leak and then contact mellon so he can adjust your maps.

 

It's the replacement valve that's causing it. I accidentally broke the nipple off my stock diverter, so I got a turbo xs aftermarket dv to replace it, and mine did the same thing no matter what. It's hard to deal with either way you go, you need a softer spring pressure than most aftermarket one's have to keep compressor surge down, but the tighter spring pressure helps keep your afr's closer to normal. Either go back to a stock type valve or try to have it retuned. I was able to play around with my map enough to get it higher than 10.4:1 like I originally had, but not by much.

 

dont think its my tune when i do a log in third(without shifting) a pull to redline i have no rich conditions at all pulls clean all the way with good AFRs. It was doing this when i had the stock 9 valve on it thats why i switched cause it was leaking so bad. I thought that was surely it but it was not unfortunatly.

 

I have talked to Chris about the problem and sent him logs but he had no clue what it could be but im going to do a leak test and see if thats the prob aleast it will rule out that if it is an issue when i get it done one step at a time i guess thanks for the help guys.

 

Remember you hit different load cells when shifting....Chris will be able to figure it out.

 

Wow, I'm a retard...
