okay here is my situation i was driving from texas to missouri when i noticed a exhaust leak.once i made it to my destination i realise the leak came from where the turbo and manifold connect...the turbo came seperated from the manifold due to the bolts breaking. well i replaced the bolts and the car ran perfect. when i was driving on the highway and downshifted the cat started to bog badly now the car bogs badly every time it goes into boost, my wideband also reads rich at the highest level it displays....i have a s14 sr20det built, gt3076 turbo, 850cc injectors, z32 maf, 18psi boost, and enthalpy tune. any help will be appreciated....oh i also disconnected the maf while the car was running and it died so its probably not the maf

Doesn't matter, check your piping that's def a leak. It's bogging because of the overload of fuel. The overload of fuel is because the ecu is expecting boost that its not getting
