Well I hit fuel cut for the first time this morning . It's not as violent as I thought it would be. Definately different from a stutter that old plugs might cause. I hit it cuz I have an unhacked MAF in the car right now.... it's coming out tonight. The boost was only at 14 psi and I hit fuel cut at about 5k. Going to the normal MAF I could feel a little better response when initially hitting the gas pedal though. Certainly worth losing to gain the top end and fuel cut defense. I'll update my webpage to include this info. ------------------ Quadcylla92 Laser RS-T FWD

Maybe I spoke too soon. I put the hacked MAF in last night and felt no loss in responsiveness. Maybe it was the old turbo or the big crack in my exhaust manifold?
Fuel cut gone now.

You can usually tell if you've hit fuel cut by the bruise on your forehead or the missing front teeth as your head is slammed forward into the steering wheel.... ------------------ '91 Laser RS Turbo-"Sound Advice" guy. http://www.geocities.com/rsturbo.geo Turbo + Intercooler = The replacement for Displacement

LOL.. I remember hitting it for the first time in 3rd gear merging onto the highway.. The "jolt" was enough to chirp the tires.. After a second or two of sheer panic, I realised what had happened.. ------------------ 1992 Eagle Talon Tsi FWDSuperiority after 60'.. ICQ # 9622983 My Home Page...
