Although this may be a forced induction question, I figured it may be a long post (not sure yet) filled with more that just FI questions
After swapping in my b18b I had some slight throttle response problems, it would take my car a second to realize that I was stepping on the gas. It didn't happen very often, so I didn?t think anything of it. Now that I have installed my turbo, it does the same thing, except now instead of just hesitating once and going back to normal it will do it for a period of time then go back to driving normal.
Now, I'm hoping that it's just a fuel problem seeing how I have a FMU/missing link setup right now, soon I will be driving 4 or 5 hours to get uberdata tuning and I would like to drive on the FMU to get there.
Do i just need tunning? maybe a timing thing?
O yeah, when driving normal, my car scoots, I mean it scoots in a good way
thanks

i think it's a electronic fuel delivery issue.. once you're tuned and setup i think you'll be fine

I have read some stuff about the ECU going into limp mode without the missing link, not sure what that feels like.
Also I don?t have my first O2 sensor connected, and my car is throwing a code but I haven?t checked to see what it is because I don?t know how

pull your harness and ecu back out.. look for an orange clip (orange on mine) it's tiny like it only has a place for two pin in's open up a paper clip stick it in the clip holes.. turn the car to almost on and count the blinks

Now when you say beating do you mean taking it to the rev limiter or just giving it some gas? ive taken it up to 5 lbs of boost once, but i agree, the last thing i want is to have my car sitting in the shop for another month.
