    Leaking EGR cause abnormal accel? if so how bad?

    Well i was just reading a post by another member who described similar problems as me, jerky acceleration seemingly like a misfire of sorts. I just changed all my sparks and no difference...my other thought was IGN coils until someone in the other thread mentioned boost leak. I have a boost leak...

    4th year MAE @WVU here As much as it pains me to give advice to someone from Tech :), all i can really say is don't take morning classes, if you're anything like me you like to go out and a lot. I've had 2 8am engineering classes and failed them both from lack of ability to pay attention and...

    Changed plugs, still low Hz knock

    well someone mentioned it could be spark knock...i changed the plugs but still am getting the reading just not as much. Vibration still occurs occasionally as well as mentioned above

    not getting any boost out of my new 57 trim (long read)

    If it was a HUGE boost leak like it would have to be if it was one, it would be very very audible and distinct....i know very well as i recently had one. I blew out the pipe connected to the turbo down towards the IC...Huge tear...and i actually still boosted just a little bit...and YES the BOV...

    Changed plugs, still low Hz knock

    Well i tried the plugs, seems they helped quite a bit with just power in itself and lowered my idle about 1K however i'm still experiencing low Hz knock ranging from 0-10Hz. When it occurs my idle is about 950 and on and off i feel a vibration, during which i notice it corresponds with my A/F...

    Bad/fouled plug??

    ^well i pulled 3, the other three i couldnt get to w/o taking off the IC pipe and coils. The three i pulled seemed to be in great condition, but who knows, they may have lost their spark somewhat. I'm always weary about putting in cheap plugs but, right now can't afford the Iridiums or the step...

    Bad/fouled plug??

    I've recently come across some low Hz knock sensor readings...anywhere from 0-25Hz. It's highest at idle (which it idles 1K) and once you press the pedal it drastically drops to anywhere from 0-10Hz. Cruising on the highway around 5Hz. Some people have mentioned spark knock (i've never heard of...

    Clicking noise near ECU when under boost

    Its kind of annoying, it actually is louder than my radio sometimes...any good way to muffle the sound a bit? you can see where its at in this pic:

    Clicking noise near ECU when under boost

    Ever since i've owned this car its had this. Whenever the boost goes above 1psi a fast paced, rather loud, clicking noise occurs in the general area of the ECU. Its really really getting annoying at this point. Any ideas what it could be and how i can make it stop? BTW: the noise can be...

    To port match myself, or let someone else have the PITA.

    port matching is NOT the way to go. completely changes flow rates and velocities. it has potential to make things worse depending how you do it of course and what parts you do it to...you just don't go around port matching things in your car b/c you think more air there is better. Thats not true...
