Backpressure, turbo problem
Ok, got a problem. My friends car, when he boosts in 1st up to 6500 RPM it feels fine, but then after that it feels like there is backpressure, like fuel cut off almost and you can hear the exhaust puttering like backfiring. In 2nd gear, at around 4500 RPM and up, the car putters. What could be the problem?
When we disconnected the charge pipe so that there is no boost, the car runs fine "N/A". But then we connected the charge pipe back and it does the same crap.
Could it be fuel issues? Messed up/sticky FMU?

Re: Backpressure, turbo problem (BG Boost)
you do realize when you disconnect the charge pipe, you are spinning the turbo to oblivion, right?
My guess says it's either too rich, or your spark gap isn't closed enough

Re: Backpressure, turbo problem (VaporTrail)
With the charge pipe disconnected, there isn't enough load/exhuast gases to spin the turbo to oblivion.
