OK so heres some of the back story... I just got my car back from not having it for 5 months.... Some asshat was taking forever and not doing ---- right so I had it towed to another shop to finish/fix.... Lots of fixing involved....

Anyways.. I have a 2.4L 03 Eclipse GS with a T3/4 turbo on it... I just brought it home from the shop which was about 300 miles cause I had moved in the 5 months... anyways... It drive great on the HW and stalls if the RPMs fall down near idol.... The BOV on there is a turbosmart dual port unit that is recommended for over 14psi... but I am only running 8 so I replaced it with a greddy type s as I figured maybe it wasnt opening the bov enough.... It does recirculate but I am not sure if the shop where I had the tuning done has the antistall feature on the emanage on.... I tried with and without the recirulation hose on... It stalled both ways... I need help... it doesnt really seem to blow off much when not in gear but it I just need help this project has been 5 months and is getting on my nerves... I ask you because you seem to know more about turbo installs and problems than anyone on any 3rd gen eclise boards I can find.....

Oh also I have 520cc injectors and it will stay running if I start it cold as the rpms stay much higher like 12-1500 till warm then it slowly falls off... and will stay at about 650 or so as it always did before turbo install.... So I know its possible for it to run at that low rpm.... Just if I let the rpms fall on their own it stalls.

Bump please offer up any suggestions...

do a search. Stalling out like this has been discussed like 3 times in the past month.

i recomend learning how to work on your car yourself because the shop thing will get even more annoying and expensive. they see a car with a turbo and they want to rape your wallet. as for the stalling thing, it could be your spark plugs or it's leaning out on lower rpms.

distributor problems perhaps?

i think your car has a clogged flux capacitor. just dip it in mineral spirits to get the grit out. someone on here had that same problem.

Slow responding o2 sensor perhaps? Just throwing it in the air. I know we have that problem on some of our stock units at the shop. The 02 reads fine, doesnt set any codes but whats happening is it responds too slow and the ECU can't compensate the fuel. I would still suspect the MAF sensor and your BOV.
