Could you disconnect your map sensor with M tune and check your boost levels?

I'm not sure it'll even run with the MAP disconnected.

Am I the only one having an issue with the M-tune like this? I'm seriously contemplating going Megasquirt or even an LS swap because I'm so sick of the issues with this. It's made me really hate my car.
I'd go back to stock, but I really hated the car like that. Laggy, slow, blech.

In hindsight I really should have soldiered on with my 84 Supercharged 944, it was such a better car.

Have you double checked the DIP switches on the chip board? Make sure you haven't accidentally selected one of the E85 maps.

I don't have dip switches like that on my DME. It's an early version.

Thanks! but I'm moving in two weeks so the car is in storage. I'm hoping to get back to it after the big move.
