what do you mean? I know an untuned engine equals disaster but I babied it and only drove it to the body shop and back, 10km trip all together.

we are saying that your problem you were asking about was not a boost leak caused problem.

driving around like a reasonable person on a basemap is fine. what i was getting at is that fixing the boost leak did not fix you problems. it might have helped you build boost, but your problems were/are tune related.

Most of the time I can feel if the tune is off. The seems like it has a tune made for the car, like I went to the dyno. When I have more money I'll get the tune checked out but as of now, I need a clutch. Thanks for your concern, the world needs more people like you.
