I'm chasing a similar problem on my stock '94. The behavior is clearly
visible on the boost gauge: After I run at full boost (~15 psi) for a
second or two, the ecu cuts the engine off. If I hold the pedal down, the
car bucks like crazy between full power and fully cut off. Once I cause
this situation, the engine cutoff occurs at 5 PSI until I do an engine
shutdown and restart. Then the cutoff point goes back to 15 PSI. I've
improved the situation some by fixing a loose hose on the moisture trap
under the plastic cover by the firewall. I'm getting a code 2413 "mixture
adjustment". The MIL light isn't on, which the Bentley says it is with a
2413 code.
I've given the MAF sensor a good cleaning and I'm going to try replacing my
never-replaced bypass valve. Have you replaced yours? I didn't see it on
the list of new parts. Other suggestions appreciated. The Bently lists a
lot of possible causes for the 2413 code Is there any particular thing
that's usually behind it?
