Hi - sounds similar to problems I had recently which turned out to be a leaking boost hose/pipe and a faulty MAF. Eventually CELs will start coming on.

Cheers,

Hey ckm88 - Didn't you and your Daddy just get your car?
And you're already giving advise....Truly Amazing! The learning curve here at 6speed is incredible.

Melsta, is your ECU stock? If, so you might have a boost leak. If you have flashed it recently, you could be overboosting. Other than that you might have MAF issues. I recommend the obvious - have it checked out by a trusted Porsche technician.

Thanks guys
I only have bov and exhaust on my car with no ecu upgrade yet. its throwing code 1128 and 1130 I look in the repair manual for those code and it says check either maf or fuel pressure and the fuel pressure is at the correct psi. I have the evom hoses that I am gonna put it on to see if it will fix the problem.
thanks for the replies I just want to narrow down the possibilties before I go and get rip of by the dealers
