any ideas? ive been talking to lagos and weve gone over so much stuff, but if anyone else has any ideas let me know.
so far weve checked most stuff up to listening to the injectors to see if they fire, i tried to do this but couldnt because the downpipe is LOUD. ive checked and rechecked almost every hose and connection

does it have to be reved to stay running? and does it sputter while you hold it just to keep it running. if so i bet its a loose connection on the AFM there are 4 wires i think and i had one that the prong came out of the harness and my car wouldnt run at all. it sounded like a rotory motor being held at 10k ready to launch. then i connected the wire and glued it back in the harness and it was fine. check the afm anf all connections going in. it could be alot of thngs but this is one that i have experience with.
