Ok so i did the maf comb and either i messed up somewhere really bad or the e85 is starting to free stuff and clog my tank

When i go to get on it at about 4500 rpms (doesent really matter what rpm's more about load) only when im in boost the rpms will drop to zero then back to where i was at the check engine light turns on for a second the turns off,i get a backfire and ecmlink forces the log to stop capturing as soon as it happends. Heres a pull of it happening and the log shuts down right before the rpms drop at first i thought it was fuel cut but my IDC is only at 50% my load factor is only at 1.70 my maf raw is only at 1100 so im thinking its clogging my tank or , my ecu is starting to fry some how or the eprom chip is popping out.

Do you get link issues? Does ECM link see the ecu or does it disconnect?

Quoting toybreaker:
karma?



Sure.

Ya the ecu disconnects from link and i have to reload then start logging again.
is the ecu shitting out on bigger load because it has to work harder?

ok so i think it was the horrible template i used from maf comp because i straightened everything out and it doesent happen anymore i think the car was stalling and then immediately bump starting so that's why i would stop logging....

I forgot that ecmlink will stay logging for 30 seconds so this is definately an ecu problem nothing has happened like that since I adjusted airflow I'm confused I geuss my ecu is slowly shitting out

Do you have a wot 3rd or 4th gear pull logged? What psi boost are you running? What maf?
