boost issues? help!

Post by chunk82 »

I recently installed s300 with the hondaga b oost solenoid on it and properly hooked up everything correct :) but I'm having issues.....when I hit 6k rpm my car just totally shuts off....n won't allow me to rev past that..... I checked my booost cut and it is set to 9.9 cause I'm using a stock map sensor...boost gauge also shows 10 psi when I hit 6k rpm n e suggestions on tuning n fixing this? I thought it might be a spark plug issue n I'm running the ngk r spark plugs? N e info well help thanks!

From your description you are hitting a boost cut.

Adjust the settings in boost control so that you make less boost so you don't hit the boost cut. Or you need to raise the boost cut.

I tuned down the boost....and raised the boost cut to 12psi it ran fine for the first couple of runs then it went back n did the same thing....could it be a fuel problem cause I'm runin stock injectors? First gear rips through fine.......but second just seems to shut off around 6k rpm?
