Meth still spraying on lift?? HELP!

I dont know what the heck is going on with my kit.

My boost hasnt been hitting what it was tuned for, so I figured it out that I had a small pin hole leak in my line between the tank and the failsafe, hence running wastegate.

Fixed that and took it for a spin and now when i lift to shift the car just wants to die....?

When I lift completely and coast I get 8-9's on my afr and it sounds like I have a gigantic cam in and takes about 3 minutes for the car to correct itself. When it corrects itself and I tap the gas it wants to stall again. When it completely corrects itself I can drive normaly without boost but the second I boost the same $&*T keeps happening. I'm so pissed right now.

Seems like when I lift the meth just keeps on spraying and flooding the motor.

I did 3 pulls in 4th to redline and burnt up 1/2 gallon of meth, WTF!?

I cant figure it out for the life of me anyone got any ideas?

I just checked the hell out of everything, No leaks, tested to see if it was spraying and it is, ran down the road w/o meth in the tank and its running on wastegate like it is supposed to.... Any ideas anyone, i know someone at least has to have some guesses that I maybe over looked....

How are you checking that your nozzle is spraying ok and the system is working properly?

It sounds like your alcohol injection kit isn't shutting off when you lift, or you over spraying and alcohol is pooling up.

Thats exactly what it seems like.... I test it by letting it idle and switching the connection that is meant to test the system. I am going to get on it today and figure it out I hope.

Anyone got any more ideas or experience this?

Mine did pretty much the same thing, I found a microscopic pin hole in the meth line between the tank and the failsafe. Your situation may be plug related.. How old are yours?

You running 100% or 50/50?

I installed mine myself. I'm pretty mechanically inclined and everyone wanted too much or doesnt do meth kits by me.

Something is up with your kit, run around with your car and then check quickly where all of your lines run to see if you are leaking anywhere before it evaporates
