    gt4088r install......

    I took it out!!! Damn i dropped the boost to 8psi to be safe and watched the afrs as close as i could with only me in the car. with the tuner at zero i run way rich which is good, for now. My buddy said he was adding fuel? He was also running a bone stock 7m with an emange (no fuel mods or lex)...

    gt4088r install......

    I have rechecked for leaks none found. after letting the car warm up the afrs went rich then stabled around 14.6 safc all zero. i can reset it back to my old settings with the ct turbo but do believe that i would have lots of issues right? My vac is not at 11. there is no port on turbo for...

    gt4088r install......

    my old setup was 14 at idle 18-20 on decel. the only thing that has changed is turbo, exhaust and exhaust manifold. only pipes i had off were the charge pipe from turbo, and cold pipe to tb. all couplers and clamps are tight. idle is smooth and doesnt seem to hesitate when bringing the rpms up...

    Vacuum help

    Just for reference, vacuum is inhg, not psi. got a little confused looking at that. I would check all ic pipes. as well as relocating gauge to back of manifold. or tapping into the boost psi line, which comes right from manifold

    Rain killed this car i just bought

    DO NOT CLEAN AFM WITH CARB CLEAN OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT. Failure will occur. I had my bov vented but it would only die on decel after coming off boost. I am pointing my finger at the afm. (being you said it ran great before, even with open bov)

    thinking of goin t4 setup now. Blew the dm 57trim.......

    I wasnt too concerned on the turbo or the rest of the kit. i am going with the correct route, start with a good turbo, legit mani and so on. And yes i noticed all of the misprints as well.

    thinking of goin t4 setup now. Blew the dm 57trim.......

    Ok so i am debating on doing an ebay kit, mainly for parts not so much the turbo. I have been pricing out the parts from various places and everything except the turbo is as much as the whole kit. I am figuring that i can always find a better quality t4 in the future and have all the...

    smoke on decel?

    ****UPDATE***** Reinspected the turbo and it took a shit. axial and radial movement is the cause of the oil burning. Only has 1500 miles on it driftmotion 57trim ct-26. anyone else have issues with them?
