Default Need help with apg wag!

somebody let me know if they've had any trouble with one. I've had mine since april this year and it's worked fine but today my car started back firing and sputtering when accelerating. I thought I just got some bad fuel so I tried adjusting the wga and it made it worse. So I put the stock wga back on and the car drives fine, just alot slower. Do these things go bad?

its possible. What is your boost when sputtering? Is it spark blow out?

Well I'm going to go on a limb and say that you had a vacuum leak somewhere. I've only seen 2 reasons for mad boost flutter:
1. ignition issues
2. Vac hose leaking.
