Socks Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 get yourself a plug n play ecu for 450-500...alot of money but make a huge difference.... and they get rid of the fuel cut problems, get rid of your 112mph limiter and raise your rev limiter too... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stulet-GTT Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 could be very close to fuel cut.. think the light comes on when your close tooX2...My GT managment light use to come on at high rev's or if i was driving it hard...But since i relocated air-filter, changed the FMIC pipe off the turbo to drop down the left of the engine, and took off the little air-filter on top of the rocker cover an put a pipe to a catch can all seem's ok and the light hasen't come on again..I know there little thing's but it all seemed to help...

Danturbo4311 Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 do a diagnostic test first it does sound like fuel cut but do it so you no for sure as it dont cost anything to find out also see if any other codes come up aswell. Just use a paper clip bend it & in the diagnostic plug bridge terminals TE1 & E1 together put your ignition on & count the flashes, also reset your ecu to get rid of the code by either disconnecting the battery or removing the EFI fuse.
