we need more info. Any mods.? Recent work engine work? What do you mean "hooked vacuume system up"? Just replace the engine? You hook a aftermarket vac. gauge for correct readings? How many inHg?
What is your setup?

We need lots more info.

Good luck with that. I having almost the same issue with the HKS SSQV. I got sick of stalling so I bought the recirc. fitting for it. It took me a while to get the hoses right and not to leak. Fortunately it stop stalling with it recirculation but I think I got the AFM dirty in the process. Well I hope it got dirty. Running like crap and misses sometimes, good under boost though and when the engine compartment is still cool

the car is stock. after i swaped to turbo the only thing i changed was the bov, and remove the cruise control. the rest of the motor is stock with the exception of metal hgk, arps, added boost gauge, intake filter, and no egr. i want to get it to run right before i start changing parts.


and thaks for the spelling lesson StarScream, but i changed all the VACUUM hoses and it still stalled if driving and i stoped at a stop sign for example.



levirolla do you have any pics of your set up now mabe i can make some changes..

If you want it running right you may want to put the EGR back on. It's already been proven on here by a very reputable member that his EGT's dropped over 100 degrees when he put his EGR back on. That's a good thing ;)

FYI, my cousin had probs on his supra with the HKS BOV (not a knockoff) surging. I put it on my car, and this never happened again :dunno:
