When I push my clutch down when driving my revs drop so low my car cuts out or struggles to to stay idling this is only when driving, if I just start up stand still she sits fine and when I rev it's fine any ideas
I haven't mate no but I could do its had a lot done to it by previous owners ,cars only just started doing it last cuple of days tho my last scooby did this but I sold it with the problem without knowing what it was
Lower inertia of a lightened flywheel can drop the idle considerably without a map is why I asked.
I would say it is most likely an air leak....you got a dump valve / BOV fitted? FMIC?
If your certain there isn't a leak then as above I would check the throttle body and idle control valve.
Yes blitz dv fmic iv had the pipes on and off cause changed the turbo so maybe I just take everything off again and put all back together and tighten ect and see how I go

They can be a nightmare pal ensuring they are all air tight. Have you got a boost gauge? is that's ready ok still?
Could be the DV also, I had one that had gone weak and started to leak causing bad idle.
Check your inlet hose, especially where it's clamped to the turbo - the jubilee clamp, if overtightened, can split the hose.

Yeah I clamped that up well will still check it tho and yeah got boost gauge that's all good, iv got a few dump valves laying about might swap them about see if that makes a difference

Well if it was a boost leak you would expect to see it on the boost gauge
Its going to be one of those things you have to check everything, I would make a list and go through them to make sure your covering all your bases. Start with all the stuff you have had off recently.

Yeah thinking more of a vac of maff than a boost leak I would hear it and like you said I'd see on my boost gauge and my boost is strong it's just when I come to a junction with clutch in she dies or nearly does, gunna check everything again tomorrow and clean things up ect cheers bud
