What happens after 1.5bar?

[Richard Tanimura]

Mihnea,

Interesting. Are you saying there is a MAF map as well? There must be
because the MAF values have to relate to rpm and boost somehow. Right?

Mike, Dave,


I too think Dave is experiencing the overboost fuel pump cut-off but I'd
rather bet on a small boost leak that triggers the cut-off.. The reason I'm
saying this is because the overboost fuel pump cut-off is determined by air
flow across the MAF, not actual boost, so no matter the boost level he's
running, if the MAF signal is over the programmed max level, the fuel pump
cuts off, I've BTDT and tested that in real time with an eprom emulator
recently, just for the fun of it.

So I'd suggest you Dave to check for leaks in the intake system, possible
culprits are the IC to intake pipe hose and possibly the bypass valve too...

HTH,

Mihnea
