Is my turbo supposed to pull evenly up to redline? I know it falls off as the RPMs climb, but shouldnt it still be smooth and consistent? Mine is really spurty. It pulls hard in little bouncy spurts as you step on the gas and the RPMs climb. Is this normal or ...?
The sensation is like what it would feel like if you were loosing grip while trying to accelerate really quickly... bouncy in the acceleration, like little cuts in the power. Hopefully someone understand what Im trying to explain.

Mine pulls nice and evenly ...
Is it breaking up .. or just too rich?

The turbo does run much less boost at the higher RPMs

It certainly shouldn't be bouncy and uneven in acceleration.
Take it back to the dealer. I assume you haven't done any mods to it?

I thought I posted something here last night... i know i wrote something. I was buzzed, guess i forgot to submit it.
Anyway, my car does the same thing. its BAD. gonna take it to the dealer. I mean, all the way from 5k rpm to 7k rpms it feels like someone is jerking the gas pedal on then off and on then off and its really uncomfortable. My gf was in the car with me when it did it once and she was like "wtf was that?" It is VERY noticeable and bad.

you guys really need to read the forums more...
its cause its running rich.
two fixes
1) wait for the mitsu tune that should be here by the end of april
2) put on a cone filter/drop in filter to safely lean it out
this goes hand in hand with the idle issue... which you will soon be having too. seems to happen after the ecu learns how you drive on cold starts.
no worries, all is getting figured out. its not your turbo, its not your bov. its just the factory tune.
