when do you guys normally hit boost cut? i was chasing my friend's 5.0 and when i hit 3rd i started boosting and all the sudden i heard a boom and i got jerked forward. i let off the gas then acclerated slowly to make sure my i.c. piping was still on and everything checked out. so was that boost cut? or is my car just proving to be even more special e.d.?

 

yep, that's boost cut! technically called fuel cut

 

oh ok. i wasn't sure. it's just weird because it does it when it wants to. nothing about my car is consistant

 

How often do you get on it in 3rd? Youre probably building more boost in 3rd than 2nd and the cold air creeps up on you.

 

well i have to disconnect my battery if i'm not driving the car for at least 5 hours so the ecu gets reset every time so i think that's what it is. my check engine light doesn't come on until i turn off the car and turn it back on. i already know what all the codes are. the cold air may have helped out a little too.

 

i dont think fuel cuts triggers a code

 

Are you sure its not misfiring or something?

 

turn your damn boost down and stop wasting gas!

 

lol i had the same prob. cold air giving me a lil extra in 3rd. i get a hard jerk then the boost drops and im fine.

iv got no codes though....

lol Skyline. drop the boost and stop wasteing gas. wats the fun in that hahaha

 

yeh i guess you have a point
