Hey guys, kinda stumped here.
Just finished putting a fuel pump in to fix an erratic fuel pressure(20-60psi crusing down the highway), While I was there I also shimmed the FPR with a 4-40 screw. I had to remove the turbo too, I could not get that dam Banjo bolt back on.
Anyway, went for a quick ride. Under acceleration at about 2800rpm it just looses power and Boost INSTANTLY goes to zero, And it also backfired on me 3 times(I can see the glow of flames out passenger window) and LOUD Booff like almost a intercooler hose blowing.
97 5 speed EBPV ******, blank pedestal, 4" exhaust, ******** tunes.
I am wondering if somehow the hose at the turbo is sucking itself shut and blocking off airflow. It is not the original orange one, it is I THINK a Diesel site one, maybe Riffraff one
