1 - get rid of the generic tune and xcal1

2 - new coils

3 - gap the plugs to suit your boost

4 - you will need new valve springs if you want to tune it.

I know a couple of people that have had a similar problem due to a loose fuel line on the intank Walbro. Especially if it's the one with the big intake because the pressure relief is turned up. The rubber hose with hose clips is not as good as the original and it can come loose or even split the hose. A friend replaced all his coils and plugs before finding this out.

If checking it make sure the tank is low on fuel if it's anything like the BF.

With the valve springs, if you boost hard and then come to a complete stop and it won't idle for a few seconds then there's a good chance that's a problem.

Cheers

Chris
