hi everyone.I own a 03 xr6 turbo and I seem to have a problem.when I put my foot down and the revs climb it seems to start popping and loses power.if I drive around nicely it doesnt seem to do it.I throught maybe it could be a hole in the exhaust or cat.or a something to do with back pressure or a dirty injector or sh*t petrol.if anyone could help me with my problem that would be great and thank you.

the car is stock.it pops for a few second and has no power then takes off again,it seems to be when the turbo kicks in

Ah yep that is possible if you break traction it will kill the engine, try turning that off and see if it continues?

...........because if it's on and you've done something to cause wheel spin (tight cornering in 1st etc.) you will experience the symptons you have explained.

Fark you've got to be quisck around here :w00t2:

I will try with the traction off but it does it in a straight line and has only started to do it.the popping is like the engine is missing or something
