Yeah was thinkin AFM at first but due to it bieng a complete cut in spark for a second or two not a miss fire im sure its a form of "saftey" cut like boost cut of some sort.

Also this car since i bought it has been running unusually quick for no mods so im guessing boost cut

Sounds very much like ignition cut from overboosting. Get a gauge and monitor it. Possibly have a bleed valve in there, or hoses are leaking to the wastegate.

fuel/boost cut definately...like i said the other day marc, whack a gauge on it and a bleed valve and it'll be sorted, guaranteed...

if it was afm it'd do it whenever your car sees anythin above around 5 psi, and in any gear...

yep.

where do you spray the contact cleaner in a 98 wrx afm?? my car is fucked.. 3000rpm and the car joplts and shutsdown as if turbo cuts in and out.. stalls and is utter shit, cannot drive it at all ina ny gear... help>??>>?

theres 1 or 2 screws on the AFM which will let you remove the actual sensor unit.
Youll see the sensor, kinda like a bit of wire, spray the cleaner on this and the air will evaporate it all..
Clean it a couple times, let it dry then put it back in and try

just adding to this thread. Recently during the colder nights my car has been spiking to 1.6bar roughly hitting boost cut. Could a bleed valve help me fix this by lowering the boost level?

Thanks

John

bleed valves are crap mate, they will only increase your boost with a controlled leak, get it tuned

ahk fuck wanted to take it down for a run tomorrow, with the cold night i'm sure to spike and hit boost cut the whole way down. Sucks!
