hey guys , i just noticed that with overdrive off (so the lights shows on dash)

if i boot it when it should change gear i get a sudden loss of power

tried with od on and it didnt do it

i was wondering what this could be

it wouldnt be fuel cut would it?

i know with my subaru that when i hit the fuel cut it felt like hitting a wall

but this is nothing like that, its as if its just changed to a really high gear

could this be fuel cut? im only boosting at 1bar with overdrive off and for some reason with overdrive on it only boosts to 0.9bar

just wondering if its that, i have no fuel cut defender on it and it boosts at 1bar

but this is my first auto car

when my subaru fuelcut it felt really hard no just a loss of power it felt like i hit something everytime ,really jerks you but this is just a loss of power

yeah mate

for some reason with overdrive off my car will hit 1 bar

with overdrive on my car doesnt hit 1 bar its just under

have no idea why this happens, new to the supra, its been decatted with a chris wilson decat and restrictor ring to 1 bar by the looks of it

but no boost controller or fuel cut defender

i think i mite buy a fcd and try anyway mate because i was going to get one so i can increase the boost to the max these turbos can handle which iirc its 1.2bar and it will defenatly fuelcut then

i noticed on another site that theres a free way to stop fuel cut but i take it that its still not recomended to do this?

any ideas on a good place to buy the fcd from bud?
