The fuel isn't old and its 100% gas, no ethanol, I'm going to cut the cat and put a test pipe in and see if that fixes the problem for now.

Hmmm, dumb question but what would you suggest looking at to fix that then? The car set for 3 years so the cat may be rusted shut

Would it affect the car badly if I remove it?

I'm leaning towards a clogged cat but just wanted the opinions from some seasoned people out there. When under load, the car has a god awful smell, I wish I could fart like that, its enough to gag you. Its a rotten egg/sulphurish smell. Its not all the time, only when going up hill or high rpms...

Good to know. Thanks man.

Todays the first day I've actually put any real miles on the car. I decided to take to top out and take it for a drive. I was on a country road, paved, going to my Moms when I noticed a serious vibration through the whole car. I thought the rear end was going to fall out. I drove to a gas...

Dude, I <3 you. I saw the one on Driftmotion wasn't sure it would work though. Thank you for the fast reply.

I looked at the comparisons between them and have decided on the one to buy, my question though is are there any standalone kits for tubing to replace the black mess we have now? I just want to dress it up a bit. Thanks.

The first thing I did when I got the car was replace the headgasket with a oem one from Toyota and arp studs, replaced the fuel lines, filter and blasted the tank. I was not sure on the boost gauge and was looking for clarification. Thanks for the help.

My boss has been busting my balls as of late. The main reason is that I used the company credit card to purchase office supplies instead of the officemax.com account we have. The reasoning I had in this was that it saved us 1300 for the order instead of wasting it. Today I had a meeting with...

I did, but I do believe the sheer noobishness broke the function, but thank you very much:)

That is a good idea Orion. This thing set for ages so may very well do that. Also, screw those bottom bolts. 3/4 of them broke coming out. Had me swearing like a midget in a slam dunk contest.

I have never owned a turbo anything before, well I had this little dog one time, pretty sure he was on meth, but anyway, what I was curious about was the factory boost gauge. When idling, if I rev the motor it shows no boost being made. Is that normal? When I drive it shows boost fine. Again...

I removed my bumper so that I can sand it and prep it for paint properly and have noticed that the factory intercooler has overspray from whomever did the paint job before. My questions are 1) will this hurt anything? and 2) if not could I repaint it to match the color I'm going to be painting...

Lol, well I appreciate the feedback. The dress was going to be part birthday and part Christmas present to her. I'm still going to look for a good exhaust though:)

So I have finally saved enough money to get a good exhaust on my car. Here is the problem, I caught my girl on the phone upset to her friend that she couldn't afford a dress she liked. The dilemma is, do I pamper my car, or get the dress? I feel the dress would be the better thing. So with that...

TE1 to E1 with a copper wire on the diagnostic box to get the codes correct?

I'll do that tonight. Thanks to both of you. As soon as I know I'll report back.
