Hey all i just went an got new turbo gaskets put in, an i believe something has gone terribly wrong!! The car on idle when it does makes a constant suckin noise coming from either the pods or turbos every 2-3 seconds.

When you get up it it could honeslty be beatin bye a scooter... (maybe) whilst doind 110km ever couple off seconds the car makes the same suckin noise an looses alot of power, also i was watchin the boost gauge an it constanlly moving even whilst the accelarator isn't being pushed, it honestl has got me f!@$ed.

Does any1 at all know wat going on.. the car makes 470hp atw but is a joke rite now... also when coming to a stop at lights it just shuts down an doesnt wanna idle.. could it be fuel/air or vaccum hoses been put on wrong?? i dont know

PLEASE HELP!

do you still run the air flow meters? if so the pods will have nothing to do with it i dont think. i think one of the hoses between the AFM and the turbo is loose or not on properly etc that would cause the jumpy boost etc as the afm would be telling the computer the wrong info. also it is possible a vacuum line is on wrong. maybe even to the wastegate if the boost is all over the place. check it all properly and if u cant find the leak take it to a mech. it wont be serious just a loose hose i reckon.

    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋
