    Idle problem sovled?

    Also, how does it make the car idle up exactly? How does it work? I know when its not working when you get off the gas the car dies, how does it prevent this? Does it have to do with mixture or?

    Idle problem sovled?

    Okay I figured it out, my idle sensor seems to work fine when the engine is cold and then it wont idle when it warms up. I think I need a new one but couldent I just block off the coolant lines running to it for now to get it to idle? I think the coolant makes the switch idle down a little when...

    I HATE smoke....

    Oh boy where do I start... Well just replaced the head gasket because it was suspected to be leaking, no water in oil just at high boost/rpm the engine would bog up and I would get smoke out the exhaust too at idle. Well the engine does not load up at high rpm anymore but umm I just saw it smoke...

    I have a manual boost controller, I lost the diagram, I forget what side is vacume and what side goes to the wastegate.. If u hook them up backwards you will overboost so I dont wanna guess... does anyone remember what side is what, there all the same

    What the hell is this crazy thing!?

    I have an aftermarket FPR and no EGR, can I unplug them from the harness and block off the vacume lines? What does the computer have to do with it?

    15 psi wastegate spring, but i boosted to 22psi

    "full throttle for awhile" If the wastegate was not opening at all it would be 22 PSI as soon as the turbo spooled up. Maybe its a poor vacume sorce? The wastegate could be undersized but since its internal I guess its made for your turbo? Are you using a boost controller? If it is pluged in...

    I know this has been discussed, but still! ELECTRIC FANS!

    I have been using mine for almost a year now, no cooling issues, in fact the fan barely comes on unless the car is at a stoplight for more then 2-3 minutes or so. While crusin on the highway or even slow there is absolutely no use for the fan or any fan for that matter. It is very common on...

    I know this has been discussed, but still! ELECTRIC FANS!

    Hayden makes decent big single fans, "WOW yet another "Urban Myth" that needs to die......" for the ALT drag, yes its true but you still make more power doing it electric then dragging the engine with the air resistance. And its not a myth you do make more power and rev freeer that way

    The head is coming off tomorrow...

    yea your right im taking a risk, but with the new ARP studs being alot tighter the gasket will form if there is a slight warp, besides the stock one is just dribbling
