Thats what im confused about. I had a mail-in reflash from dynoflash way back in December 06 for intake, exhaust and fuel pump. I drove it WOT again tonight, and it sputters quite bad only at WOT though. When i put the stock intake on, i dont have this problem. I tried turning down the boost a couple clicks....and it still sputters at WOT.
thanks.

It wont hurt to check your spark plugs or do a boost leak test,but if you said it works fine with the stock filter then it might be your tune.

ya.. might as well do it...always better to be safe....installation should be free when doing cams....buschur says it can be done safely one at atime without removing cams so i'll do that whenever i decide on a turbo upgrade.
