id suggest getting some gauges, what power is it running, if your going to do a decent conversion its worth paying that bit extra for decent gauges, so you can see exactly what the engine is doing. I have boost, fuel pressure, air / fuel, water injection pressure. Get him to check no vaccumes to FPR are kinked (This happend to me before)

needs a decent remap!
Bet it sounds cool though, but will be losing a hell of a lot of power!

Does sound like an electrical thing, dissy leads or plugs some time if your plugs arnt gapped for your boost it blows the spark out on boost
