IX bogs in 5th when in WOT from 80-110
when i cruise at 80mph and go WOT, my car bogs at around 105-110. Do i need a tune? or maybe the boost needs to build up? I have light mods, cams, intake, fp green turbo, 850cc injectors, TBE with straight pipe and a few other little things. What would be causing this? car was tuned back in 2010.
Just don't make a habit of going WOT at a low RPM (2500-3500) in 5th gear. If you have to pass somebody, downshift to 4th.
5th gear spools the turbo at a lower RPM due to increased load and can cause your engine to make a dangerous amount of torque. Also, you risk causing surge damage to your turbo compressor in 5th gear down low.
