Default All of a sudden, car wont boost?!

Yesterday I went out driving, logging. Came to a stop, made changes to the map and set off again. Now whenever I go into boost the car jerks like mad and feels like spark/fuel has been cut. I have a digital boost gauge and can hold the car at 100kpa fine and it does nothing. Soon as it goes into positive pressure it bucks and goes mad. I tried burning the orignal map back without the changes and it still did it? I have a log which I will post later when Im home from work.

Thanks

Nothing, no boost controller, only the actuator.

Been there...done that...still have a big L on my forehead.


Everyone knows the symptoms...except the guy that can't get into boost.
