I'm starting to think it's the sparkplugs. I know this is horrible per the turbogs bible (where and whatever it may be) but i am running NGK bkr5e plugs, gapped at .050 .. I think the sputtering and loss of power i feel under wide throtle and boost might be due to the wide plug gap and the density of the air/fuel mixture under boost. My local bap/geon tried to tell me that NGK didn't make a bkr7e-11 plug, until i convinced them to call ngk, after which they told a diferent story. I'll have the new plugs sometime next week. Hopefuly that will clear up my problems (i'm doubtful) but i have my fingers crossed. I can't hit full boost and i've never heard my wastegate open because i'm afraid to give it that much throttle because of the way it has been running under wide throttle. It's backfired a few times when i don't lket off it and it starts sputtering, and i really don't like it.
It's also really hard to start. I'm not sure why, but if anyone has had this experiance after a tirbo install, i'd appreciate any input. I have to lean on the ignition for a good 15 seconds to get it to turn over on it's own, and even then it doesn't seem to want to start.
-DarkOne I'm so bad, i should be in detention.
