Re: car bogged at 3500RPM in 3rd, now won't start

I had a similar issue with my build and it turned out to be a bad vacuum leak. Do a pressure test if you can.

I have a 38mm tial wastegate. I am still experiencing an issue when the wastegate is fully open, it seems to bog down and get really rich. The wastegate is being vented underneath the car instead of through the exhaust. Would this maybe cause the O2 sensor to mess with the timing and cause the car t...

I am in the process of ordering a new o-ring and i am waiting on the recirculation valve to arrive. Hopefully by the middle of next week i will b...

I bought the ecu already chipped from someone from here, so i really can't say for sure if the ecu was good or not. I have pressure checked my whole system several times, but the more i ...

My maf is probably a good 12" from the turbo. My bov is open, but i have turned the screw on it as tight as it will go to prevent it from leaking at all. Actually even when i hit 10psi, it doesn't let out all that much air.
