Starts fine. Runs great, but as soon as I get on the boost... It falls on its face and puffs out black smoke everywhere. I know I gotta check the map sensor and a few other places.. But I really can't see what the hell could have been done to **** it up. All they did at the shop was take out the airbox to get to the headlight. DAMMIT. More Drama.

Better check the PMS too just in case someone got bored...

No ****. Can't think of ANYTHING else it could be... The battery died too... Wonder if that killed the settings somewhere...

yeah sounds like it's getting awful rich on boost, do you have any instrumentation for monitoring your af ratio?

I have the PMS keyboard. I don't know how accurate it is... I also have a A/F gauge... I know that's worthless. I'm looking to SOON get the good goods.

It is running VERY rich... Even at idle.
