Sup Zilvia,

K. real quick ..I recently bought a new shell ...the last time i drove my old car everything was fine..car had been sitting for about a year since I did the swap.

Did the swap...everything seemed to check out ok..car started up idle fined..reved fine in nuetral..

The problem i have occurs when the car is driving..the car revs out fine through first gear...but in second and third gear it bogs and breaks up real bad...in order to drive it any where ..i have to quickly shift into 4th and 5th gear so that i can cruise at a reasonable speed....I been trying to rule out common issues...TPS checks out fine, Maf too, FPR at idle is about 3Bar

NOW what i noticed is that one of my vaccum ports on the intake mani doesnt seem to be functioning properly..idk if this could be related to my bogging issue...i determined it wasnt working when i hooked up my boost gauge to it and read 0psi/vaccuum at idle...when i hook the gauge up to other ports it reads vaccumm at 20...as it should be..So my main questions are as follows

- Whats wrong with this vaccum port? has any body had similar experience?
- Could this be related to my bogging issue?
- If so, what would be the recommended steps to resolve this issue?

Addtional info on the car:

-upgraded turbo/injectors
-ROM tune
-SAFC neo for fine tune and monitoring
-Z32 maf
-Walboro 255lph fuel pump

Heres a pic of the port that is not functioning

spray that bish with brake clean and shove a pipe cleaner up it.

that port is not a "vaccum" port, It is before the T/B, not after or in the intake manifold. it can be blocked off or used for a waste gate signal.
