ok wet out to midnight madness with the new intercooler,intake,turbo-back exhaust,and greddy boost controller......sounds good right....oh no i was hitting fuel cut at 5,000rpm all night i thought it might be the k&n typhoon intake? or the boost controller itself? anyway i turned the controller off went wot,and no fuel cut.....i heard the k&n intake causes problems after 5,000rpm but doesnt happen till i turn boost controller on? should i just get a manual boost controller? im lost.....

 

Maybe you should get it tuned.

 

I have heard of people having problems with the typhoon intake but not with the greddy boost controller unless you have it hooked up wrong maybe i dont know though

 

There are plenty of 400+ HP Evos using the stock intake with a drop in filter. The Typhoon has probably the worst reputation for causing more problems than anything. Put your stock intake on, put the drop in of your choise in there, and call it a day. Good luck and keep us posted.

 

+1 on getting it tuned. reflash would be the best bet, oh yea and change that k&N typhoon business and put your stocker back on with a drop in. peace.

 

why would i hit fuel cut when the boost controller is on? and not when its off?

 

because when you turn that boost up the computer is trying to compensate for the changed a/f ratios and naturally tries to save your motor thinking its out of controll and wa la, fuel cut. A flash would easily get rid of this.

 

i see, it was even doing it in low boost 19psi with the controller on!

 

yea the stock computer is very sensitive and will try and maintane safe parameters at all times unless you get that reflash and its a whole new ball game.

 

so should i get rid of the intake keep the boost controller and get a flash from turbo trix?

 

sounds like a plan to me.

 

thanx mrmejia you have been a real big help!

 

That's what happens when you pay no attention to what all of us suggest on here as far as mods go, then try to go out with the worst combo of mods imaginable while untuned and try to race. What in the world possessed you to purchase an FMIC, Typhoon intake, and EBC without being tuned, having a fuel pump or a BOV to hold the boost?

Sell the intake, re-install the stock airbox, add a Walbro fuel pump, get a Forge RS BOV, sell the EBC, get a Forge UNOS MBC, then get tuned. TurboTrix will give you a good flash, or you can get a Dynoflash.

 

i herd the same..
