Default greddy turbo problem

Hello all,

for a base info, Im running the HKS exhaust and Greddy turbo. no BOV.

we finished the install today, and she started up fine. BUT, i put her in first gear and slowly gave power and she boged bad!.. i gave her more gas and she still the same, almost like she wants to stall. but once you get the rpms up she's fine. From a full stop, then easy throttle, she'll buck hard.

with in a few drive around the block, the check engine light came on. We checked the Emanage, but its all green. We unpluged the battery to reset the ECU and it cleared.. but after a 30min drive, the light came back on..

We looked for a vac leak but nothing.. do you guys have any ideas???

Do you have a full tank of gas? I noticed mine bogs sometimes if I have close to 3 bars of gas.

Maybe you should have the code checked to see what the problem is that ecu is seeing.

first thing to do when you get a CEL is to scan it....that CEL is a HUGE factor in determining what the problem is! get back to us when you scan it.

autozone does it for free, but you have to bring your car there
