Rep Power: 0 TSI Turbo Kit- tuning problem?
Hey all,
D17A1 (2001 Civic LX) boosted with TSI kit. Stock internals, everything replaced new (and I mean everything except the block and head).
Car ran fine before boost, so not an engine problem. Fuel management via the TSI "black box" using stock settings.
Problem: When I either creep up on boost (half way throttle and don't shift until redline) or floor it at WOT, the car boosts up fine and picks up. I can even shift hard and boost keeps going. My problem arises when I take my foot off the gas, the car will cut off. I can restart it without a problem, and it'll stay on, but it's that initial cut off that worries me.
I have ordered the AEM wideband, so will look into that. But in the mean time, any of you guys know what it may be?
Only other parts I added after the turbo kit was a magnaflow spun metallic catalytic converter, so both my O2 sensors are plugged in. Also tried disconnecting the MAP sensor, but to no avail.
Thanks for any help all
