Punctuation dude...... had to read your post a few times over to see what you were REALLY trying to say.
By "tacked it up" Im guessing you mean accelerate at WOT. Give more info, has it ever done this before? Do you have any mods? Are you running an FCD *fuel cut defender*? |
no i dont have any mods and it never did this with me before. I just put the motor in a month ago

first, did you do the compression test correctly?
most people see 90 on one face of the rotor and think everything is fine, even if you have a small chip in one of your seals and getting 60psi on 2 faces you will have piss poor drivability around town and slow revving.. does the car idle on its own or shake at idle? second place i would look is for a faulty catalytic converter, exhaust trying to squeeze out of a straw is going to make the engine run like ass so inspecting them might be a good idea. last thing i would check is the turbo, make sure it spins freely, could have siezed up on ya which would make the car run slower than a non turbo 7. |
does sound like a seized turbo to me
