Right anyone got an idea why when my car boosts and the wastegate opens fully ill change gear, but then the throttle is unresponsive and when i come to a stop it will stall??
I take the key out lock and unlock and the car will tick over again but if i dont then she just will not start!
Its like a fail safe of some sort!

She little rough on start up and has a little smoke but thats due to not having a idle control valve project next month lol

sounds like the stupid electric throttle body is playing up or the ecu is going into safe mode. when Stix's was constantly going into limp mode you could manually rev the vehicle by turning the outer wheel of the TB in the engine bay which made me thing why not bypass the stupid electric throttle body and somehow jam it so when the pedal is pressed it turns the whole thing not just the inner part.
