Well, I just got my AP tonight. In 4th and 5th (never tried 6th) above 4000rpm at WOT it fuel cuts a lot, SOMETIMES in 3rd above 5000rpm, but most times 3rd is ok.

Here is my setup...

MS CAI in SRI mode with air straightener
RPMC turbo inlet
Forge BPV (just changed to blue spring)
TurboXS DP
CP-e CBE

So, I have the stock catted 2.5" midpipe (I was told it should run fine with the map I am using). I loaded Stage 2+SF v1.02. Would it just be because it was -8 outside tonight I was getting cuts? I was watching boost and it was never boost cut, highest it spiked was 21.9 psi before the ECU learned the wastegate again. After about 100kms and 3-4 cycles max it spiked was 19.7 psi, which is what the map shoots for.

My next mod I really wanted to get the CP-e DP, but I might have the get the CP-e HPFP instead.

So, anyone have any ideas why I was getting fuel cuts? I'm thinking temperature...at least I hope that's the cause lol. It has never happened once before with the stock tune and all my mods.

It's probably the CP-e CBE - you should just give it to me!!! :)

Give the 1.03 map a shot. Helped me out.

Know where I might aquire said map? Last I heard, only 1.03 that was out was for FMIC. Do you have a link to the Stage 2+SF and possibly also Stage2+MSCAI?

I just went out for another drive and it wouldn't fuel cut in 3rd at all, and only got 4th to 5000rpm once and still didn't cut...I hope it was just working kinks out of the system lol. In second and third it makes an odd gargly sound sometimes. It also sounds so much louder and meaner...so far I love the AP. :)

Ok, I did some searching around M3F and I found the v103 maps. Thanks Pat! Can't wait to try the 93 octane tune.

I've been using Stage 2+SF 93 octane v103 all day today. Didn't fuel cut once yet today! Thanks again for the suggestion, Pat.
