You say your getting no cel at all? are you sure you put that jumper in? I wouldnt have put a new map sensor in until you had the problems you already have figured out but w/e. Try starting over and making your own basemep from scratch so you know that it isnt the problem.

Burner works great btw...blasted a bin off BRE earlier last night and works flawlessly. Think it might have something to do with the code? NG48/55 as compared to say NG60?

well the one map i have is the ng48 and the one i have now is ng60 and the other i tried im not sure which one it was but all produced the same outcome die after any boost. the map i have now seems to be a little better it only died once and i saved it from duing the second time which i have not been able to do with my other maps.

Is it happening only when you come to stop after boosting? Or does it hiccup into boost? Could be too rich in boost and starting to foul the plugs, might also be too rich at idle. Might also have both compounding themselves together...so many variables

exactly it dies after i have hit boost come to a stop and then try to take off from the stop is when it dies. so you think fouling plugs? i have the ngk-bkre7-11 gapped to .28 i thought origianally the gap was too big and that was my problem(they were stock gap) so i closed them up to .28 should i maybe run .29-.30 or is what i have suffeciant enough?
