my00 running bad after FMIC. HELP!!
Hi,
I i'm new to this forum and need help. My car is running crap after fitting a FMIC.
Car Spec:
my00 uk turbo with std td04 turbo.
blitz SUS induction Kit
HKS cat back exhaust
uprated fuel pump
blitz spec r boost controller (16 psi max)
Now after fitting my FMIC (hybrid style, off ebay) the doesn't run right. When driving normally it drives ok but as soon as i put my foot down it goes like ****.
When i lift off, change gear and put my foot back down there is a large amount of lag, i was expecting a bit more lag, but during this lagy period the car is very judery and feels like its missing or there's a fueling problems or somthing. Really not nice and the car is much slow because of it.
Any ideas?? do you thing its needs mapping to over come this problem?

Sounds like its running v lean, when was your maf replaced last (if ever), the fmic will allow a big change in air density that means more fuel is needed, so you are faced with a remap to get it right, and a new maf if its not been replaced.

There shouldn't be any leeks as all the joins are done up nice a tight, but i will try the thing with air compressor when i get the car back next week as it's in having the front end resprayed.
It had a new MAF sensor about 2000 miles ago because the car wouldn't idle properly, which solved that problem.
Bob glad to hear you thing it can be solved by mapping, i think i'll buy a new turbo, de-cat downpipe and new uppipe then get it map, all ASAP. Just have to drive it round very gently till then.

Finally got my car back from being painted
Changed the MAF sensor still the same.
Pressure tested the system and found a leak on one of the welds on the pipe work. Now waiting for a reply from the supplier
Hope this fixes the problem, if not i think it's got to be a re-map.
