Loosing power. What's wrong?
 
I have an 05. It drives fine under normal cruising conditions but when i get into it it will builg boost up to 8 psi and then it will loose all power. it holds the 8 psi. And it builds the boost very quickly like normal. I dont think its a boost leak. could it be the MAF or a bad spark plug or coil pack? I have full exhaust, exhaust manifold, uicp, licp, intercooler, intake, and an aem truboost boost controller. Any ideas?

Are you tuned with your current mods? Have you done a boost leak test? I would check the basic s**t first.

+1..is the car tuned?

Billy05MR Nov 25, 2010 09:48 PM

No not tuned but ive been running the car with all the parts in for the past 3 months and nothing went wrong until now.

boost leak or MAF

3dcalixpress Nov 26, 2010 01:28 AM

maybe your solenoid went bad on the tru boost ...was it new or used ?

Billy05MR Nov 26, 2010 02:35 PM

It was brand new. If it was the MAF would it throw a CEL?

I had a similar problem, for me it was my intake, but if its not that it could also be your wastegate if its still the stock one

4g63Moon Nov 26, 2010 05:15 PM

What kind of bov do you have? And did you check all the pipings for leaks?

Billy05MR Nov 26, 2010 08:43 PM

I'm running the factory recirc. valve. What would be wrong with the wastegate?

Billy05MR Nov 26, 2010 08:44 PM

And what was wrong with your intake?
