Are you running phase chips or anything else apart from standard management?

Thats running some kind phase chips mate. TBH, it could be a variety of things. You need to either have the car Rolling Roaded the next time you go out or not drive it till you can have it Rolling Roaded. Well thats what i'd do as obviously, something isnt right. Plus those FSE power boost valves are aload of shit. You really need this set up properly.

Thats your decision. Start a thread in your region section asking for local good Rolling Road tuners would be your best bet.

An afm should bring up a fault code, so the engine management light would come on. But as you bought the car like it, I doubt you'd know if the conversion has even been done to a decent standard. Like i said, people could guess on here all we like.. Go to the people in the know, before it does long term damage to your engine.
