Random Loss of power

[Pierce'sST]

Okay so my 2015 FiST suddenly lost a bit of power, I have a Cobb ap and it reads that I’m only hitting a max. Of 6psi boost, and a max. Of like 144 hp.

Check and make sure your hot and cold side pipe clamps are tight. Those are the typical easiest loss of boost areas to check. I re-tighten all clamps at oil change to avoid any system leaks

REMEMBER A TIME WHEN WE HAD PROBLEMS. WE FIGURED IT OUT

AND ONCE WE TRIED EVERYTHING AND LOSS OUR HAIR TRYING TO FIND A PROBLEM, WE FINALLY WENT TO THE FORUMS WITH OUR TAIL IN BETWEEN OUR LEGS AND ASKED FOR HELP

"HEY I HAVE THIS PROBLEM AND IVE TRIED, X, Y, Z....."


NOW THESE DAYS, SMH.....

Remember those days??? I still live those days of needing to figure it out on my own. I am not sure I have ever posted an actual help me find this fix request. I am sure it is coming.

I don't enjoy making mistakes, but I am damn good at making them and plenty old enough to learn from them. But I am also happy to share the knowledge. Some people don't have the patience or understanding yet. Some people are just lazy. Any which way I don't mind helping where I can if it helps get someone fixed up. The good part about the fix it knowledge is that usually pays itself forward at some point.

And yet, yes I will still shake my head at times...lol. Oh well.

Problem is Im 27, I get put into the "young" crowd and I'm not. It's not about being young. It's about being competent and learning. You think old times were born with everything? No we learned everything and didn't ask for help on EVERYTHING. I was born in 92 and shit went down hill since. I refuse for my son to be raised in a spoon fed way lol

 

[Fiestig]

LOL... I assure you everything went downhill in this aspect WAAAYYYYY before you were born...lol.

"I was born in 92" sounds insane to me...lol. I learned without the existence of the internet. Since you have not had that luxury (and yes being without internet was a luxury back in the day), you have technically been spoon fed your entire existence. But, that is ok. What does it really matter?

Man, it's a forum in the proper section to ask a troubleshooting or maintenance question. Relax, It's ok for someone to ask.

Check you boost hoses on hotside and coldside pipes. Then check the AP3 to see if there are any Stored codes and report back!

Make sure you're not in Valet mode, easy to do with the cruise control buttons.

Valet mode would restrict your speed as well though, correct?

Depends on the tune. I assume you've reflashed it at least once.

Valet mode is independent of the cruise control. Perhaps you're thinking economy mode.

I had Jason at Dizzy set up a slot for me for snow mode, so it is possible

The valet mode that comes with the Accessport does restrict speed and better than the MyKey mode from Ford.

Does your tune file have a reduced boost setting that you accidently engaged using the cruise control buttons?
