Re: 1.5 bar cutout on unchipped 5kcstq



Most likely the hose that is connected to the Intercooler and the thingy that
says turbo, is split.  Replace it and there shouldn't be anymore problems.

 I don't spend a whole lot of time at WOT, but I haven't had this happen
 before. The ECU and wastegate spring are stock. What would cause this
 overboost condition? Thanks.
