    Default more and more and more and more problems

    Well, ever since i got my car back from EPG, its been running just as bad as before, except that I wasted 514 dollars on parts that apparently were not bad. Also they upgraded my ECU to X+, and I cannot be any more pissed off with the results.

    I know its not EPG's fault, because when they got done iwth it, it worked fine, but now it acting up again

    I dont know if its a combination of small problems causing big problems, but apparently EPG didnt catch them

    My problems are as followes
    Sparratic Misfire
    Sparratic Misfire Cylinder 1
    Sparratic Misfire Cylinder 2
    Sparratic Misfire Cylinder 3
    Sparratic Misfire Cylinder 4
    Running lean

    thats from the ECU-CEL, here is what I am experiencing

    Backfiring when boosting
    Backfiring before turbo spooles up
    Serious surging problems
    Major Loss of power (limp mode more constant)
    Spparratic times when it boosts properly (more not than often
    Very rough idle

    I am about this [ ] close to selling this car because no one is capable of diagnosing the problem.
