    Starting issue...again

    Only thing that is connected aftermarket to the car is wideband, boost and water temp gauge and turbo timer. Could any of these cause aforementioned strain? It'd all wired into the fuse box in driver side footwell. Sorry for multi message I'm responding via phone.

    Starting issue...again

    Also I will add I have no vac leaks, one of the video confirms that by looking at the boost gauge, and it does this not matter whether it is a cold start-up or a warm start-up, but generally if i turn the car off and turn it back on within 5 seconds it will fire up right away 9 times out of 10.

    Starting issue...again

    So I used to have an issue where my car would turn over just fine, but it would never fire up and start. After many tests and attempts my mechanic told me that it had to do with timing, because most of the time when I try to start my car itll backfire before I eventually get it started. Another...

    Car Won't Start, Possibly Alarm Module

    What have you done to your MSP today?

    why do people insist on using other peoples maps instead of making your own...? every car is different, especially when they have different mods, your car will react differently and you could be doing damage without knowing it.

    Bought a GT2554r, got a GT2560r - can I run it?

    youll feel probably the same power at 6 psi that you did with 9 psi on old turbo. im pretty sure there was a member on here that was on 4 psi and he had roughly 190 whp

    Bought a GT2554r, got a GT2560r - can I run it?

    it is not the same, the bigger turbo allows much more air to pass through at the same level of psi, so you will run a high risk of blowing your engine at that PSI on non-forged internals

    only a little bit of oil

    yeah thats what i planned on doing, but if its only a break between a coolant jacket and an oil jacket than i doubt compression test would show anything. will update when i have a better clue, my oil level has been pretty consistent, i mean i burn a little oil, but im pretty sure most boosted...
