How much boost are you running? Is the car tuned at all? 720cc injectors are BIG, especially on a car with a 2" downpipe. If I had to guess I would say it's too much fuel unless your making like 450+ hp. It could be a number of things though. I know on my car it turned out to be fuel pressure. Just start messing with it, and only change 1 thing at a time. If it doesn't help, put it back like you had it. It will be easier to pinpoint the problem that way and you can address it accordingly. Good luck, turbo problems SUCK!

I'm running 1.3 Bar, my car is tuned very good with
a wide band air/fuel ratio, I had a 440 RC Injectors,

thanks in advance, Avi.

ok, I had an EX, now I own a hatchback,
I had a T3, now I have a T3 T4
I had a lame manifold, now i got better,
I got a bigger intercooler, new plugs,
bigger injectors, everything is better, but the
downpipe, which is smaller, it runs like,
10-15 HP stronger than then.
