It's possible that you have a boost leak in the vaccuum lines. It just sounds like you're experiencing hesitation though. Any more details on this like when it occurs (after longer driving times, just when you start the car, etc)?

like in the mornong my car halls ass goes through all gears no problem but after a while it lags even if it sits for a while it lags its like it goes until it hits about 4000 rpms then it sits there for a few then slams its like the cars not boosting right.

hesitation.

...and heatsoak due to the small I/C. If you really cannot stand it, go get flashed. Just be sure you can't stand it because that limits your boosting levels until you get a standalone.

heatsoak isn't due to a "small" intercooler, its due to a very inefficient intercooler =)

what can i do i dont wanna flash it :..(

 

[mp5jeff]

how much money do you want to spend?

 

[mp5jeff]

the cheap way out would be to get a boost gauge/boost controller and turn the boost up...

 

[Secto1]

i have like 250

 

[mp5jeff]

go for a boost gauge and a boost controller(please don't be like some people and turn it to 15psi without supporting mods), if you know what you are doing.

so give me the 101 crash corse on what to do!

 

[mp5jeff]

search around the boards, theres plenty of info on boost gauges/boost controllers. and prices, etc...

 

[Secto1]

i forgot to mention that i have a greddy type s bov attached to the custom charge pipe can this cause a problem my bov is addjusted to hard no stalling ?

 

[t3ase]

what would stalling have to do with the hesitation?
