Re: turbo problems (99GSRT)
my fuel setup is stock besides the additional inline fuel pump that came with the kit. I know that i need bigger injectors and tunning but i figure that it shouldn't effect teh fuel cut.

Re: turbo problems (JimmyT89)
I was having the same problem with my car when I first installed my turbo and I had an Inline Fuel pump, stock injectors and an FMU, at 6+ PSI the boost would just drop out. My engine lasted one week before the Piston rings broke from detonation.
