Had a look myself turned out to be a huge air leak on the intake manifold. Got a new tuner now 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bellato Donating Members 2,713 Member For: 14y 1m 7d Posted 11/03/15 10:02 PM Share Posted 11/03/15 10:02 PM Tuner should start with the tune and go over it to make sure anything is okay, then they should be able to diagnose the issue, whether it be plugs, coils, valve springs etc.Also I'm no expert but if valve springs are starting to hurt, im under the impression you could actually just put a decent exhaust on instead and free up exhaust flow and that will take some pressure off the valve springs and they might be okay. Plus you will make more power with it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
