Hello all last thursday I got my first scooby it's a 97 wagon with full turbo back with de cat, air filter usual mods. But when giving it some 3rd 4th and 5th gear at around 4000+ rpm feels like I've hit a wall but fine when I change gear again it's also fine when driving around normal don't over rev over heat ticks over nicely so what can be the reason? Cheers

 

Coil pack, leads and spark plugs possibly. Failing under pressure.

 

Bring in the spending already lol. Nice one cheers

 

Do u have a boost gauge fitted? If so what is it boosting too?

 

Yeah got a boost gauge but tbh I ent sure

 

has it been mapped for the decat???
im betting its overboosting and getting fuel cut due to no remap for the decat.


kepp driving it hard like that and it will pop

 

I ent gunna drive it hard until its sorted. I don't think it's had a remap sounds like I got a duff one lol

 

Fuel cut?.

 

I had the same problem when I had my first scooby, which was also a wagon 2000 turbo. It didn't have any mods though and think all it was was the boost sellonoid need cleaning with an airline. Took about 5 mins with someone who knew what there doing.

 

I've spoke to the bloke and its over boosting so need to get adjusting.

 

it needs a remap not "adjusting"
its overboosting due to not being remapped for the decat exhaust!!!!

how are you planning to "adjust" the boost?

 

Might be clutch slipping ? Mines just started to slip in 4th pulls as normal in lower gearing. Does engine go faster but car isn't ?.

 

Clutch is fine. Actuator on the turbo adjust that to adjust the boost?

 

for the last time

"IT NEEDS A REMAP"

the car is overboosting and the fuelling needs adjusting too.

take the correct advice or guess and blow it up, the choice is yours

 

Where's a good place for a remap in Buckinghamshire then?

 

Like I say never had a scooby. I've found a place called mp Motorsport so ill try them. Cheers mate shall I do plugs as well or leave them only reason being I dunno when they got done last

 

a good service will only help the car.

try a mobile mapper like dynamix or jolly green monster.

they will come to you and map it.

 

Nice one cheers buddy.

 

Duncan from dynamix has just mapped my hawkeye and its now a different car, well worth it. Look him up as he has his own website.
