It idles fine, but whenever I go to give it gas, it bogs down and acts like its going to die. I don't have my intercooler piping hooked up yet. Could that be the problem.

because my intercooler and piping has not gotten here yet and I was anxious to start it. everything else besides that is done.

I love when people answer their own questions.

Where's your MAF sensor? On your turbo inlet, like usual, right?

That means when you hit the gas, the MAF sees a ton of air coming in, and not a bit hitting your motor.

That is why.

No, the mafs isn't on the turbo. I have my stock intake on. I just wanted to know if not having my intercooler piping hooked up could cause this.

Just a basic top mount setup. 6:1 FMU, stock ECU, MAFS, and injector.

sounds like you did something wrong. should run just fine with only a turbo bolted up. make sure all your connections are right and tight. also dont rev the piss out of it when you do get it running good.
