So as title says my beast developed some sort of misfire when going on full load is ok when i'm on 1/3 throttle but more than that and it's sound like subaru or antilag....
I don't know if fact that 2 days ago i've changed exhaust to 3" car ran till last night.
I've checked plugs, leads, cleaned dizzy, pressurized intake (no leaks) and i've drained fuel+ changed fuel filter as it happened about 10 miles after some fuel top up but no changes
So i would be glad if some one could point me in some direction
Bay the way car runs standard boost, ecu, maf and i haven't checked for codes but there is no eml

Thanks Mike

When you cleaned dizzy, did you check your rotor arm? The grub screw on mine came loose once and caused a similar issue.

Checked plugs ? Or changed them. Fuel starve ie pump starting to play up ? Damp or wet in maf ?

Just checked maf and it's dry and looks ok although i don't know if pulsar maf dies suddenly or breaks up like audi etc and gives wrong reading but not showing any fault
Well i'll change plugs tomorrow and pray that will help...

Didn't find any... I'm just reading stuff on other forums and ppl saying something about fuel pumps and mafs i'll check feed to pump tomorrow but no idea about maf i know i can check voltage from signal wire etc but no idea about any resistance... Will pulsar run without maf ie in limp mode or just won't start?

Is there any loss in power .... did you change the whole  exhaust system ... was wondering about vibration from the exhaust ???? Also check battery connection if your still running battery at the front think i remember a member on here who had similar problem wich turned out to be the live connection just after the terminal ...

Well i'm not sure about loss of powe as i won't boot it with fault like that... if i'll feather it seems to bee boosting exhaust is am performance elbow+downpipe(with screamer) rest is 5zigen pro racer. Car ran fine with it for 2 days... I've checked them 2 small connectors right from battery and they look ok i'll recheck them and clean them tomorrow again but it just strange as car starts and idles ok if i keep it off boost it's ok as well. I've changed lambda as well as i've had one kicking around...

I reckon it's an afm fault going by symptoms your describing doesn't always come up as a code
Check the earth to plug and take a separate Earth to body ground and clean connections.
If plugs are all ok that's the next thing I would suspect

I've still got walbro to fit and we'll see from there

i've had the power transistor on mine act up that gave me stutter symptoms

i unbolted it from the mount on block and mounted it away from the motor and strapped an old ecu heat sink with some thermal paste.

but i'd start with the fuel pump since you have one u can fit
