Engine Troubles?

HEY I was wondering if any of you ever had this problem.

i was driving my 8 and the car just died 5x in a row every time i was about to shift or right after the shift.

only mod on the car is a greddy type s recirc

i have been puzzled as to what this could be

some times the car wont turn on and it will basically turn on it when it feels like it.

not the battery btw.



any clues as to what can be going ???????????

from the top of my head..... ummmmm it could be your greedy type s b.o.v not properly in right, or something loose. Or maybe leak somewhere if im not mistaken. but if you have warranty on the car take it in and have them find out, unless someone on here has a better idea than what i have came up with.

well if you have the pipe with the greddy flange than it can only go on one way, make sure everthing is tight on the BOV, as for why it wont start...is your new IC pipe touching the battery wires or the connector and shorting it out?
