If its a VTA version, that will be why, common thing, just annoying......

Vent to Atmosphere - ie. the re-circ back into the intake has been blanked off.

i run a forge vta dump valve and have never experienced any stalling issues why is this?
thanks tristan

 

[weekenny]

Biggles - try Indigo GT

Trio - drive at above 4k rpm dip the clutch shift to N and brake, should cause a stall. However valves that you can adjust can be set so that it doesn't happen.

mines adjustable kenny, but i yet to find a non stall point when coming off boost, particularly with a throttle "blip" before pulling away....

yep anthony has em under £100

ill persevere with adjusting for now its not that bad if you manage the throttle pedal a bit

 

[weekenny]

Mine only stalled once in every 10 or so times but it got to me in the end

those expensive todd?

80 to 100 id say see them on here from time to time s/hand

Cheers for the info guys wow you just dont get a better breed of human being than the mlr evo owners lol A good bit of info is to put my original back on the wrong way round this gives a kind of vta but still gives a nice chirp! will let you know for sure tomorrow! (saturday)

APS dump valve is the 1 to have dude, its both recerculating and atmospheric so you get the nice noise, with out the stalling and tickover issues.

Adjusting the dump valve properly cures the problem and is free as well
