Default turbo vtec problem

Ive been trying to read up on this problem but nothing is quite the same as my problem. Running hondata s100b and have 750cc injectors, 255 pump. Its been tuned.

Problem is that first all its not gettin be power gains like it use to. Seems to pick up a lot slower then it did when i first got it tuned. Then when i get to vtec it use to just plataue, like no power gains. Now vtec wont really even work right. It will just kick on and off and sometimes not even go on. Checked oil and that was fine.

All this started after my alternator burned out cus the tard at the shop didnt build a dumptube for the wastegate. But besides the point, anyone know whats goin on?

try taking it back to the shop that tuned it...maybe your hondata tuning got screwed somehow...only thing i can think of

i would take it to the shop that tuned it and tell them that ever since a bunch of stuff got melted because HE didn't make a dump tube that it hasn't been runing right. tell them to fix it.
