Hi guys, I have a stutter occuring at light loads between 1500-2500rpm around 30-40mph on my ph1 turbo

Re: Titanium Ph1 172
So pretty big update really....
Over the past few months I've been building an engine ready for boost, ph1 172 block and head, megane internals, arp fasters. The intention was to run around 280/300hp which I think is the most power if ever want in a fwd car!
The spec...
