Synapse tech (I think), are pretty good about replacing defective ones.

Also, to build the radio shack fcd, look for NER947 post, 2-6 pages back. The title is like, fuel cut problem solved.

Highly unlikely. From the limited information you have givin us I am skeptical. :wary

To a degree but yes. Another reason I think you're not telling us everything.

OK heres my setup:T3 air research turbo,Star manifold,Vortech 12:1 FMU,Star Downpipe,Deltagate,255 fuelpump, 1G intercooler ,miss. radiator pipies and star stage 1 pipes for intake, blocked off EGR, 160 thermostat.Everything was werking ok except for the transition from vac to boost but from what ive read thays unpopularly normal. My usual boost is like 4-5 psi. I put the missing link back on and it does the same thing but at diffrent times and seems to do it alot more when Ive been driving for a while. Heres what happens at WOT I can boost fine it pulls ok and then usually anywhere from 3.4-7K RPM the car just dies no backfire nothing like it goes numb I can push in the clutch and let it back out and it will come back on but when I let off the gas right after it happens no blowoff but I can here the turbo still spinning for a breif second. usualy after Ive drove for a while it will do this also in first gear at any boosted RPM. I pulled all of the spark plugs they all look normal.(light grayish on the tip) This also happens at part throttle too its just more random.

Well I did a little more testing it seems 1rst gear cuts out at 5.5 K and 2nd and 3rd cuts out around 4.2 K (this is at WOT).Im gonna try and reset the ECU and see if there is any change.

Psycho, if BLUNT doesn't work out, I've got my old one from HRC. Still works. I used it for like, shoot, almost a year without problems. I just went with the Missing Link cuz I prefer mechanical over electrical (personal preference). If you want it, let me know!
