hey,

I got My FMIC install on monday, after it was install i had it on the dyno and had my ebc tune so now i am running 12psi (0.8bar) now i have a problem when i am driving the car, doesnt matter what style (it has happen when i was driving normal and giving it some stick) basicly what happens is the engine dies, it just cuts out :( But the really wired thing is that if i just re-start it the car will start fine and there isnt a problem.

I have check the following items and they dont seem to be the problem, IC piping all connect up and no leaks, afm plugs, fuel pump :S

I am all out of ideas :S

PLZ someone help its starting to piss me off :@

Did you modify the BOV in anyway when you installed the Intecooler and new piping? Check that the hose that goes from your BOV to you intake is still attached securely. Your problem sounds like what my car did before I went over my blow off valve setup.

sure it isnt your silcone joins on your cooler and piping? ..mine did this for a while until i blew the hose off completely.

double check your clamps ... start your car ..and grab some CRC ..spray the edges.. and if any of it gets thru . your idle will change.. meaning the crc is getting thru into your inlet.. meaning u have a poor join in the silcone or your clamps are on c0ck eyed

just my thoughts

      Just to be clear, there were no lights or codes when the hiccups were occurring. Also nothing noticeable in the cars' braking. It brakes fine and the dash is clear. I only made the connection when it did throw a code and suddenly, despite the lights, it felt great again.

      Yeah they are sliders and this was in my head before I worked out it was the speed sensor.

      Ok so we have a smoking gun.  A few weeks ago I had to replace a speed sensor that I'd fit incorrectly. I replaced the sensor and everything was fine with no lights or codes thrown any longer.  When I was doing some more bedding in yesterday I got ABS and traction control lights again and, considering when this happens those things are disabled, the pedal went back to normal with smooth braking and no hiccups.  The codes thrown are for the same speed sensor that I replaced. When I looked at the sensor I took out it looks like the tip of the sensor is damaged. So whatever happened to it, perhaps it has damaged the magnetic ring on the bearing (that I only replaced the other week). I'll get my boroscope in the hole where the sensor goes and see if there is any damage in there. Hopefully just the tip of the sensor is in there and the bearing is fine. 🤞🏻  It's worth noting also that the pedal hiccup happens more often and for longer periods now and totally goes away when the codes are thrown again which happens usually after 5 or so minutes of driving. Love all your help here as usual guys, thanks!

      Could you put a real seat and harness in instead of what looks like leaving your passenger balancing on a milk crate
