Finally figured out my idle issue and tried to take the car out for a drive and when trying to accelerate the car bucks like crazy and protests going under its own power. it idles fine, and if you are parked it will rev up just fine but if you try and go under its power it bucks really hard and has no power. Any ideas on what this could be? I have been going over the car mechanically and I just can not find anything else that could be wrong. Would this be in the tune?

Could be tune, large boost leak, plugs, injectors, turbo, DV backwards. surge

Any CEL's on?? Mod List??

Sounds like when I was hitting fuel cut in colder temps, Is this a permanet fault, does it only occur when warm? when cold?

Just figured this out. The car ate another set of plugs. Threw some new ones in and cured it right away

Awsome stuff. How long did the plugs last? I plan to replace plugs every oil change to be safe.. Alittle excessive, yes but hopefully it ensures no issues like this.
Great to know a possible outcome of bad plugs though, thanks for the feedback

For informational purposes I did find that one of the wires on the COP system rubbed itself bare and was grounding out. This probably was more the issue than the plugs themselves.

I was just stating the solution to my original post. I figured out the problem it was a wire on the COP grounding out and spark plugs.
