Sputtering after hard boost


Recommended Posts

I have a 03 stock 996tt. When I accelerate hard from a low speed roll (20-30mph) and then de-celerate shortly thereafter the cars looses most of it's power and will sputter for a minute or 2 (or until I turn it off and restart). After the a few minutes everything will be fine. This does not occur if I accelerate hard onto a expressway and keep the RPM and or the speed up, it only happens when I accerlate hard and then have the need to slow down aggressively shorly afte the hard acceleration. Thoughts welcome...................

I would pull the plugs and see if they are black. That

would show that the car is running rich.

You've got to be kidding - pulling the plugs on a turbo is a 3 hour job.

It would be in his best interest to have the OBD II codes scanned before he touches anything (as wross996TT said).
