2017 C43 issues when at full throttle.
Ok so I got 2017 C43 with stage 1 tune, about 420 hp and 50 000 miles on it. Car's been working normally after the tune for 2 months.
But now when I'm accelerating at full throttle the car feels like it hits the limiter, but rpm is somewhere around 5k.
First the problem started at only higher speeds like 100 mph but now it happens even with lower speeds like 40-60.
Otherwise car idles and drives normally when not at full throttle.
Thinking of overboost maybe and fuel cutting because of that. But what could be the reasons why it's overboosting ?
And is it safe to drive now when the car is in this state, so it doesn't go worse and break something else?
Anyone here had similar problem and did you solve it ?
