cel flashes and loss of power

Post by b16ahybrid »

I just got my car back from being tuned. I'm running the s100 with 756cc injectors on my b16a (w/t3t4 turbo).
The problem is sometimes not always when I'm accelerating hard the check engine light will flash on then off and when it does that the car will lose power. After it does that everything is fine. I tried to pull a code but nothing.
Other times it's fine and it pulls hard all the way to redline. Any idea's? thanks

Check with whomever tuned it that they didn't set boost cut on there. (Or have it set higher) Mine does the same thing when boost cut is on.

Just wanted to confirm for others that may have this problem. I talked to my tuner yesterday, he said that it was the boost cut and that he will raise it for me on tuesday when I bring my car back in. Thanks for your guys help.
