Car running terriblyis this normal
Guys waiting on a remap.
I have installed the following
DECAT UPPIPE NO EGT SENSOR
TD05 16G
NGK 7BSPARKPLUGS
The car is not holding boostand is jumpy,on idle it seems its nearly cutting out(but not) and in general the timing seems out
I have not reset the ecu and engine light is on(prob down to decat uppipe)
Is this normal untill remap?
I shall be driving off boost untill map
Cheers

your pm box is full 290
removing it is the best thing if you have decatted the up pipe as per mr forrest recommendations as its only for saftey incase your cat gets too hot and breaks up taking out your turbo so no cat means no need for the sensor.
