fuel filter it fairly new and its a stright pipe.. my sparkplugs wires would cause that?, and i also have to check my tps, this is after my swap and im using a s5 tb and s4 na tps sensor... and when it shuts off it takes forever to start i have to push start it. and when i mess with the rich to lean mixture thing i put it all the way to lean and it does acclerate better but bogs a bit. s4 turbo and na tps are interchangle right?

Here's what you need to do.
1. Check the TPS as per the Factor Service Manual (FSM) there are leeks in the FAQ.
2. Since you changed your plugs make CERTAIN your plug wires are in good shape and in the correct order.
3. Ground, there are several ground wires that can also cause this problem.
4. Vac Leek
5. Air Filter.
6. Throttle cable.

Go through everyone one at a time.

i already bought a s4 tb just waiting for it to get here.. i kinda fixed it by rewireing the high imp injectors. its still bogs a bit when i floor it. can it be that the apexi bov need adjusting?
and when i shut it off it wont start up, i have to push start it.. i dont think it floods

check for plug wires definitely.... T1 is front trailing towards the radiator, T2 is back towards the firewall same with L1 and L2

if that is not it.... check for any vac leaks that are PRETTY big, but not big enough for your car to not start....

if THOSE 2 is still fine... try pulling the codes
the ECU "might" be running your car at safe mode.... in safe mode u cannot boost past 0 psi...

i think from the manual, one reason that you car can be in safe mode is because there is something wrong with the OMP so check those lines as well if u say u changed to a S5 Tb how are those lines ran in the S5?

but i think pulling the codes might tell u whats up faster ^_^
