Re: 1999 s80 t6 power flattens around 4500 -5000 rpm

It pulls good till about 500rpm then it kinda flattens, I never drove another t6 only a s80 and my t6 is a lot faster than a non turbo. I guess I did not know what to expect,
thanks

1999 s80 t6 power flattens around 4500 -5000 rpm

Hi my 99 t6 accelerates very fast off the line and up to 4500-5000rpm, then it seems to flatten out is that normal? I thought the second turbo is supposed to work at higher rpm. I have new plugs and all cylinders are firing fine with no faulty codes.
Any suggestions?

Re: 1999 s 80 t6 lack of top end power

Thanks for the replies, I turns out the plugs were very old. I replaced with Bosch Platinum plus and replaced coil #3 ( it seemed that the problem was plugs only but I wanted to be safe). The car now runs great no more check engine light and lots of smooth power. Now I noticed that there is some smo...

Re: 1999 s 80 t6 lack of top end power

Check all vacumn hoses, replace as necessary. Special attention to Turbo Control Valve and Compressor By-Pass Valve spring. Have you changed your Flam trap (PCV) lately? Clean the PTC Nipple good, and reinstall the hoses. Any error codes from Check Eng Light? You could have multiple problems, but I...
