hey guys, this is what happened, i was driving and after a boost the car made a loud bang after i changed gears, then the car wouldn't hit boost anymore as soon as it revs up it hits a limiter at 3k revs then dies.

I checked all the intercooler piping that seems all good, i thought it was the AFM because when i unplugged it then the car idled fine and doesnt stall, then when i plugged it back in the car starts then drops revs slow then stalls,

so i bought a new AFM put it in and it started going all good then after 2 minutes done the same thing and stalled,

Car is an r34 gtt.

Definitely sounds like intercooler plumbing. Have done the exact same thing a few times. Make sure every single clamp is tight as Jez said, don't just look at them and assume they are tight. If they are all good then my money is still on a vacuum leak, but seeing as it happened after boosting then I am quite sure you will find it is the clamps.

thanks for the advice ive found it now the manifold was cooled down, the elbow silicone hose off the turbo to intercooler is rubbing on the manifold and the heat must of put a hole in it then it must of burst and put a 8 cm rip in the back off it. :action-smiley-069:

    • God I love shiny engine parts 🥰 Are you looking for more horsetorques in the mid range? (Smaller cam) Or just more horsetorques every where? (Big heads and bigger revs) Assumption: they were not bought late night shopping on the interwebs after drinking too many beers, which is typically how I pull pins on things......🤣 The evolution of your car is coming along nicely, I sometimes wish I didn't get bored with my cars and keep flipping them, maybe the MX5 will be different  
    • I got the hazards working! Turned out it was disconnected! Indicator stock still isn’t working. I took the steering shroud off and there seems to be a third connection missing I see two small white connectors but they don’t fit the indicator switch unless they need a short lead to convert the connector type. Can someone point me in the direction of the wiring diagram for the indicator switch?   https://share.icloud.com/photos/0e8ReiFSLBVJsTPUKKfA_1IdQ  
    • All of your suspension bushes/bolts etc, should also only ever be tightened when the car is sitting with full weight too.   IE, jack it back up, shove a heap of stuff down so you can lower the wheels onto so the car is "on the ground" but you have room to get under it.   It's why when properly done, you should be able to remove the shock and spring, but the arms won't go to 100% droop. If you don't do the above, you'll destroy your bushes.
