Boosted 99 TA

Hey guys i just recently put a sts kit on my car and im having some troubles. I got the tune done a couple months ago but it was only runnin 3psi during the tune, i had to bring it home and figure out why it was only runnin 3 psi and i figured it out and now am runing 6psi. well today i drove it for like the second time with this much boost and got on the high way and ripped it 1st-4th gear (m6) well 1-3rd gears all went good but when i got into 4th and got up to about 4500 rpm my car just fell on its face and that was it. Do you think it could be because i only got it tuned with 3lbs. My tuner said he tried to make it as best as he could for when i up my boost and told me to bring it back. I never got on it hard when i was only runnin 3psi so thats why i dont know if its a tuning issue rather than something mechanical. i had W2W do a SD tune on it. And they did what they could for the time being. Tell me whta you think

Could be a number of things. You need to have a wideband and logging capabilities.

im betting it is a lean stumble. I would be getting that tuned.

yea.. I dont even want to go from 6-8 without getting it back on dyno, and tuned again.

You definatly want to get a wideband on the car if your going to drive it at all, make sure your afr is good, and get it back to a tuner.

As stated could be a bunch of things though. Chris

don't get on it anymore either. if it is lean you don't wanna hurt the motor.

Definately get it tuned. I've seen some engines damaged from this exact thing. The boost was higher but definatly don't beat on it any more.
