Hi all, I was wondering if anyone could please help me with a problem I am having. I have a bt1 turbo with an EMS 8860 computer in it, along with several other mods including, exhaust, cooler etc. After purchasing it from the previous owner, it was running alright, but then a few weeks after it began to cut out 5 - 10 minutes after running when I first start it up. I've been told by people that it could possibly be a problem with the ECU and it needs to be re-mapped or the car just needs to be dyno tuned. I wanted to get a 2nd opinion and see if any one here could give me any insight as to what they think the problem might be. Thanks. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

a new map will do nothing to help your car stop cutting out. unless its running so rich that its fouling plugs,which i doubt
