[s-cars] Help Chipping a Virgin

[Brian Pleet]

Thanks to everyone who answered my previous post. What a fantastic resource.

After 20 years with my 95.5 URS6 , I finally bought the Intended

Prologue;
Turns out the root cause of the bucking was the MAF sensor. When replaced
the buking on wide open throttle went away. No codes generated so unless
Alex of Intended Acceleraton recalled a previous upgrade, I'd still be
cursing and looking for an answer.

The other issue on hissing turned out to be one of the new hose clamps that
came with th 034 slicome hose set had moved up the hose and with more
boost, the excess would come out around the hose where it coupled to the
cross-pipe. Some attention to the clamp and the hiss is gone.

What a great power increase. I'm sorry I waited to chip the virgin, but I'm
even more committed to keeping it.
