hey guys, i had an issue with my R31 turbo today where it was spluttering and running like a bag of ****, i replaced the fuel filter, leads and spark plugs.
im running 10 pound boost and a 3" exhaust
that fixed my problem of running like **** but now when the car is under alot of load its not fluttering it just sounds like its purging air (like a WRX dose) , and a couple of times it would purge then dose after it.
the car doses under minimal load, just not heavy. just trying to figure this out if anyone can help?

yeah i do, also its blowing a bit of black smoke, and the new spark plugs are already black -_-
could i have knocked the dizzy out of timing to cause this issue?

Standard ECU or aftermarket? Sounds like it needs a tune. Also what spark plugs are you using?

Boost leak. Check all your silicone and clamps for starters.

yeah it was a boost leak, one of the silicone hoses was loose but wouldnt actually fully disconnect because it was held on by the top radiator hose.
but now the cars running like **** again, at take off it feels like the car is bunny hoping off the clutch but my foots no where near the clutch. as i said i replaced the fuel filter, leads and spark plugs and it ran fine from Wednesday until now. has anybody dealt with this before?
