ok so i have been trying to figure out why my car is going into limp mode after it works fine for a few minutes. I wait till my car is at temp then drive it around the block with normal boost then after slowing down to like 25mph it wont allow me to boost more than 3psi, I had a clutch put in last week and still tring to work out all the kinks, I was missing a screw in the sensor on the lower piping the (map) I tried to disconnect the battery for like 30mins to resset the idle and stuff I need help please

yeah when it does throught a code but most of the time it dosnt throught any code, it kinda weird it will drive normal for the first 10mins then it just kill almost all boost is it the sensor maf cause my car only has 5000 miles on it i need to get it fixed fast what should i do next how can i narrow it down i dont want to buy the sensor if i dont need it

tht happend to me when i first relocated the maf to the chargepipeing then i got it tuned and the car works perfect now lol

that code is for the maf flow sensor. whatever you did your sensor doesnt like it. too much air or too lil air

ya check hoses and the intercooler piping. maybe they didnt install everything back in properly? I mean if they missed a map bolt....id be slightly worried.

Yup, it's a leak somewhere. Do a boost leak test.

i think its my maf sensor does anyone have like the superchips tuner where they can go into data logging and tell me what the normal maf sensor reading is cause my is jumps around from .70 to .58 at idol i want to know if that is normal or my maf is gone cause even when i step on the gas the reading goes up but when i let off the idol drops for a second almost like its going to stall
