i recently swapped another sr turbo in. But the thing is that its weird, it wuld cut off at times if i'm driving slow. But more recently i've noticed that when i'm taking a hard turn or a turn the car would feel like it there's a fuel cut. Just now i was driving and going on a onramp and the car wouldnt rev pass 3k and it started bogging and doing the same. After stopping and turning off the car it would work just fine again. Maybe the hoses on the hotside of the turbo is loose? help?

A boost/vaccum leak would be my guess. Shouldn't rev up to 3k if your maf is bad.
