greddy turbo'd ap1 bogging and stalling, HELP!
Hey guys...
For the past couple of days I've been having some issues with my S.
A little background on the car: greddy turbo, aem ems, tuned by jeff evans.
I noticed my truboost gauge reading lower than normal vacuum. Went from -20 to eventually -12. I then found out the problem was a t bracket connecting 3 vacuum hoses was burned and leaking. I changed it out for a new one, now it was reading -20.
I took the car out later that night...and while cruising on the highway at about 65mph, I noticed the car hesitating at around 3500 rpms in 6th gear. The hesitation got worse and turned into a bogging feeling, making the car decrease its speed and eventually had no pull whatsoever. I pulled over since I was doing about 15 mph even while pressing the gas.
Once pulled over, the car's idle dropped, along with the vacuum and shut off on me. After cranking a couple of times, it would start, but with rough idle and eventually would die as well.
Oil pressure was good, vacuum was at -3 and egt was at 100 or so when I started the car back up and then died again. I gave up and checked the bay for vacuum leaks but everyhing seems intact. I'm completely stumped, so I towed the car and hoping to take a look at it this weekend.
I would appreciate any input, ideas, suggestions and help that anyone can give me...
Btw. The hesitation at 3500 in every gear was present since I bought the car, just didn't think it was anything major

Definitely sounds like maybe a MAP problem.
I had a wire come loose under the dash from my previous comptech supercharger ECM install.. One of the MAP wires had a hard solder joint and came loose and I had the exact same problem as you are.. Car was dumping massive fuel and wouldnt run due to no MAP signal.
