I was looking all over the engine bay a few minutes ago. I notice the cam pos. sensor, where the plug is connected is loose. I took it off and looked at it, and it is busted. It looks like one of the metal contacts is broke. I hope this fixes it!

Wow man sorry to hear your problems. It could have been anyone of them. I was thinking the plugs for sure but now it seems you've found your problem with the sensor. good luck and let us know.

Tsidrift1 I've been having the same problem with my car for a week now.!! If I stay out of boost it drives fine.. but when I lay into the throttle it stutters at about 4000rpms...

Yea, thats the way mine is. I just got a new cam pos. sensor. The car starts now. I still have to put in plugs too.

OK the car runs much better. I have a vacuum line running straight from the wastegate to the turbo. I can boost 10lbs, but if I try to give it more gas it tries to raise the boost and then stutters. Is this what it does when you are running straight from the wastegate to the turbo?

I just got home from work. The car on the way home was a rock solid 12lbs of boost. It didnt try to sputter at all? Oh well, I guess its good then. Ill see if I can hook up the hallman boost controller again tonight and see what happens.

Hookup your mbc, and if connections are right it should be fine. Mine had the same problem. I hooked it up t'd in between the bov and intake manifold. And make sure to cap and ziptie turbo nipple, and intake nipple.
