Help with cutting out when throttle is pressed.....

[fbodlovr]

I was wondering if you guys would know why the engine kind of cuts out for a split second, then revs up when i push on the throttle. It just sputters for a second when the throttle is pressed, and then opens up. The car also revs up, but it seems to be really doggish.

I checked vacuum leaks by spraying carb cleaner on all the connection points, but it never sputterd. Help PLEASE!!!!! Could timing just be off???? If so, how do i set it?

Well, we THINK we might have found what might cause this. Tell me what you think, but when we put the turbo back on, it looks like one of the o rings might have gotten torn on that coupler thing that goes in between the turbo and intake. Do you think that that might be causing it to do this?

ALso, where can we get these o rings?

should be able to take them off and bring them to a local place to match them, this thread gives the exact dimensions. also somebody said that limit engineering has them.
