i got the car in 96' with a bad head gasket. i had the head polished and flowed while i had it off for a gasket. i wasted the clutch at a track day in 2000 so while i had the trans out i went ahead and pulled the motor to inspect it. two of the cylinders had a couple of small scratches in them so i went with 1st over porsche pistons and new rod and main bearings. this is when i installed the autotority hot wire kit with new dme and k/cp chips. i also installed a sks electronic boost controler. at this point i was running 18psi and the car worked great. last summer the hose at the wastegate broke, so the car would pull like normal down low and as soon as the boost controler opened up it was like you turned off the key. i the process of test runs trying to find the problem i managed to separate my throwout bearing so i was forced to do exploratory surgery. well when i removed the crossover pipe i found the broken hose. while i had the car down this time i had the hybrid 26/27 turbo upgrade done and to my suprise when i got the car back together it still did the same thing. i think i shorted the wires to the cycling valve before i tore up my clutch and now the k/cp unit is offline, sorry this post is so long and i appreciate your response. do you think i'm on the right track?
