    Exclamation fuel msg on dash

    while i had my boost adjuster fitted the warning lamp came up on the dash to tell me that the amount of fuel being used is too much for the ecu to read and this worried me also when the boost is adjusted the engine jitters for litterally a split second when i boot it but only when it hits over a bar of pressure, does this mean a warlbro fuel pump and bigger injectors by any chance.......also i am ratting out the s40 just as a small project now that im not allowed any drift cars now (blame the missus) so i am looking for extremely cheap coilovers and i dont care if they blow up in a year, a roof rack with wind deflector and yellow fogs

    I used to have the "jitters" on my S70 when i got my ECU remapped. The jitters got slightly worse, then i bent a rod. The jitters i believe was the ECU trying NOT to let the rods get bent, but i managed to do it eventually

    Be warned
    Thankyou, Goodnight....much love

    Mine hesitated a little bit until I upgraded the inter-cooler, a new FMIC sorted that though.

    The warning like sounds worthy of investigation, I don't think you'll need a new fuel pump if you're just running higher boost.

    Do you have a remap on the car, or just a boost controller?
