what spark plugs should i go with?

yeah ill look into it tomorrow..probably do a compression check too.

I remember the 3000 pipe was a pain, plus also the throttle assembly near 5,6 cylinder. So i can get to the 5 and 6 the others are under the 3000 and that cover with the silver / red turbo plate.

Want to change my spark plugs, but it looks like its gonna be pretty difficult. The cover has to come off along with the 3000 pipe. What else should i need to take off. Thanks.

hmmm...changed my oil to 20/50...The noise is still there also tightened my hb for giggles. Still nothing. Can't figure this one out, cause i can't hear it under my hood, only in the car.

i am assiming it is the plastic piece that usually is usually replaced with blow off valve and metal pipe.

where is this fender elbow piping at johnny? Im gonna work on this today

i checked for air leaks, my neighbor had a bright idea of taking carb cleaner and spraying it on the intercooler and vaccum lines by the connections to see if the motor would rev up...Kind of an easy way to tell if you have a leak in your system. But i found nothing. I always new something was...

also, so you are saying the error code 34 is from hitting fuel cut...What does that do once you get that error. Does it put the ecu in a different mode. Meaning if im trying to run 10lbs it will limit that until i reset the ecu.

weird thing is when i did hit the fuel cut, it was always when my car was below operating temp. I tested that theory already. I heard some people talking about how the profec b2 won't give you full boost until your car is warmed up.

so the slugging off at the top end must be from a boost leak then i guess. My boost controller is set at 10 but does tend to fluctuate at wot. There must be a leak somewhere, you think?

oh yes i have hit fuel cut, the check engine light pops on once, and wham car just cuts out.

yeah, i have stock cat, but i am getting that code so i don't think its from the exhaust, also do you need the ecu to get it retuned so you can run that kind of boost. And if you run more boost that means everybody must get this code or maybe not that is my question

Well...i checked to see if my car threw any codes at me. Man is that awesome and easy to check.. Sure enough it did. I didn't know whether or not to take this seriously or laugh, which i did. Anywho, the error i got was 34. Turbocharger pressure.. It states the trouble area is...

awesome, thanks guys..

What do i need to get to check ecu codes....Also, is there an easy way to check for leaks in the intercooler? My car seems like it doesn't have much n the top end, it seems like 3-4 is generates the most power then kind of slugs off to redline. running about 10lbs. Also, i am running with just...

It is so constant and the noise doesn't change, so i almost positive it is nothing rattling.

yeah i think it might be valve clatter, what do you think it will cost to have that adjusted?

or if it is dead i should say, am i losing boost

so if you can blow through it am i losing boost?
