Why not try changing the throttle body? ![confused confused](/forums/images/graemlins/default/confused.gif) You've practically changed everything else. JT

What about alternator amperage? try turning on some lights and a fan and see if it kills the car quicker. Or what about a vac leak?

Well everyone. Nigel and I got his car running. Before you all ask what fixed it, We dont know.. After a little propane injection we ran the car as a non turbo. TB to GM Maf to Air Filter. Car ran great... well great for a non turbo. Brought it back to the house, installed the IC pipes again and good to go ![freak freak](/forums/images/graemlins/default/freak.gif)

Brought it back to the house, installed the IC pipes again and good to go one more thing to add to this, after popping the maf-t cover off, we noticed the aux knob was at 1, rather then 0, therefore telling ecu I had 580cc injectors while I really have 450s, I dont know how this happened, but I'm guessing it payed a major role in my problem. also now that its "fixed" I cant boost for beans, I have great vacuum, 19 at idle 24 at decel, but as soon as i hit 10psi or over... I get nasty fuel cut, I'm gonna re hook up my rewire and see if that improves the situation. also will check for boost leaks. thanks

you might be running extremely lean. You mean rich. How's the knock? If your base timing is pimp and your CAS is on properly then lean her out(WOT knob) untill the fuel cut goes away. Just keep an eye on knock. You should hardly be seeing any knock at 10psi. If you do then timing is off.
