Sorry to hear brother! It is frustrating. It is really bad for me since I just rebuilt the engine! I got to the 500 mile mark and this crap started happening.

If its backfiring alot just off idle, it may be flooding.
How are your fuel pressures on both rails?
Can you monitor the fuel pressure at different load conditions and different RPM's?

Rich, the O2 is not hooked up. It doesnt backfire too much, but when it does, it is very loud. I have a 12" long 3.5" inlet/outlet single muffler off the turbo. Fuel pressure is good and raises real quick with throttle movement. I have Defi gauges.

Ed, you already have a fine example. You don't need my money pit!
