Thank you for taking the time to view this. Much help is appreciated.
I've got an RB25 in my s14 and everything has been running great until about a week ago. My car/engine seems to be giving me some "sputtering" problems while driving. I notice it way more when just city driving, maybe half throttle, however i still notice/feel it at WOT.
Say I'm driving around about half throttle going about 50mph, my car suddenly feels like it stops, then picks up again, stops then picks up and doesn't really feel like its building much boost. Sorta like if you were to push a milk jug thats full, you know how it will slide, then stop then slide a bit more then stop? It feels as if my car is doing that.
The only thing that i have changed is my FPR vacuum line and BoV vacuum line, and the only thing i did was just switch the ports. I have a Greddy IM with 4 vaccum ports on the backside of the IM. All i did was just move from port 1 to port 3 for the FPR and port 3 to port 1 for the BoV.
Where should i begin looking? I've inspected to see if any of my couplers have come lose but couldn't detect anything like that. What do you guys think is going on? Thanks again for the help!
