Default Problems under boost

Been having problems in boost & in the upper rpms. When the the revs pick up the motor seems to fall on its face and lose power. With the recent scan peak KR was only 1.5 under WOT. Once or twice there was also a sound under the hood that sounded like alot of air being released. Also under 12-13% throttle there was mising across many cylinders. Going to log more data; now.


Boosty is also having the same problem as me & we have about the same amount of miles and mods too.

Any ideas welcomed.

Ed

As an FYI -- He changed the O2 today, and is still getting a lean bank 1.. I'm sure he'll comment on it later. Right now I believe he'* changing the vacuum lines.

YEAH my hiccups seem to start about 4k too. Also up there my AF ratio goes rich to about to about 10.8 @ WOT & 90ish mph.
