i had my accessport set on stage 2, high wastegate duty cycle 93 octane, and it bumped me up to 22 psi. i didnt really think much of it until i went to the track and i couldnt get over 99 mph on the 1/4. somebody told me i could be overboosting, so i went home and flashed my ecu to a low wastegate duty cyle (for drivers who are overboosting) i went for a test drive and when i hit 5500 rpm in 4th gear/and 19 psi, the car didnt shut off but it jerked forward like it lost all power. the check engine light and cruise light have been on since. am i doing something wrong? i was told that im better off with a utec. somebody help!

First thing to do would be to pull the code using the accessport and let us know what it is.

22psi? yikes ... r u sure thats accurate? what gauge r u using?... i would try reflashing it back to stock... then flashing it again to the low setting...

sounds like fuel cut..Was it a violent jerk? Is the cruise control light on steady, or is it flashing? And what code is the ECU throwing?

i did the cel code read and it said no codes after a few minutes..i flashed it to stock married mode, and drove it around the block. then i reflashed it to stage 2 93 octane. the cel is now off but i wont know how much peak boost until i hit the highway. im using a defi bf series boost guage

the base map for the AP on the 06-up was designed for a catless system.
