thanks. By september everything should be done with the car so i can start on the body.
I think the problem is the clutch which i have an ACt clutch. cause when im cruising nothing happens. even when i push it nothing stil until you feel the Turbo kick in. 1/2 second after that it studders. So im thinking its the cluth slipping. so ill install the act later this weekend!
EDIT:BTW its ok to use 550cc's primary & 1600cc's secondary injectors on a T78 or should i go with bigger injectors on the primary

And if you don't know what you are doing, then having your own wideband won't help anyway. Cheaper to hit the dyno and see what's going on. That was my rationale.
Yea that is great and all if you only plan to work on your maps one time. Using your logic, $100 a pop on someone elses tools that can get expensive fast. It just doesn't make a lot of sense to me.

I would think a tuner wouldnt matter even if you brought your stuff. that he will still charge you the same.
BTW i came back from Lopez Racing and found out that studder in the rev was fuel-cut. so its getting tuned tomorrow
Damn. I thought this thread had potential to be cool. I thought I was gonna see an FD that was gettin prepped to race in the Lemans GT1 class....Well turns out its this hunk of **** thats about as far from a GT1 worthy car as it gets. How about you just hold the phone on buying more **** for your car and do some good research. It just might keep you from blowin your motor up...
Edit: Why the hell would you hit fuel cut? You have a PFC....

Normally I would just flame someone like you, but instead I'm going to give you the advice you need; sell the car and don't own another sports car until you're older, smarter, and have a larger budget... seriously!

It could certainly be fuel cut, the PFC has a fuel-cut based on exceeding the target boost levels by 0.25 kg/cm^3 or 3.5 psi.
DarkPhantom, while I applaud your attempt to do this all yourself, I think at this point, you REALLY need to get the car to a professional and let them check over the turbo install and ecu setup. Seriously.
