My boy says it has about 1000 miles before it go poopy! anybody wanna buy a turbo 3g? lol....sigh

    hmm...

    thanks for the links...I checked a few out. the problems with this car run beyond the ECU...the manifold along with the turbo heats the engine compartment to like 4,000 degrees...my fan comes on and it is jsut sucking hot air, I have no more room for an electric fan, and.....finally...for some shitty reason the boost is backing up into the turbo...(i have a new BOV, wastegate, and there is nothing else that seems to be behind it.

    Well there must be some blocker up cause I added an old linking address in front of the image location and it helps in that you don't need to cut and past the url to see the pics but they still don't show with the IMG tags... If there is a way to do it directly then I'll find it... it used to support the links.
    Anyways just click on the links and they should show up... in netscape or explorer... no more cut and paste.

    Its not that hard to make it run rich. Unplug the fuel pressure regulator there a 2-4 lbs of fuel pressure right there. Bigger injectors from a j-yard I here you can run upto 310cc on the stock ECU. If your real quick trick the Map sensor ethier by vacuum side or electrically to run a little rich mid throttle.

    Retard the timing a little 2-3 degress be fine. looks like its got a Crane I think you can set that to retard by RPM steps.

    Run good gas splash some 100 octane in there. Ping it your dead.

    Check and see if the cats still on the exhaust it might/prolly is plugged from running shitty. Go big as you can with the exhaust that helps temps alot on a turbo.

    Run cold plugs, tight gaps, check them alot it will tell you hows its running if you learn how to read them

    As far as the heat GOODLUCK.. Everyone here's turbo crazy till they learn all the down sides.

    I am running super lean. BUT...I tried the fuel pressure regulator thing, and my top end is like 40hp faster. As far as injectors go...I have 400cc 's and my exhaust is cat-less, 3inch w/ high flow Flowmaster made for turbo Diesels. So...my blockage, I found, may be coming from the leanness of the motor. If I run this lean for long.... goodbye.... BUT...i SOLD THE CAR...IT WILL BE SHIPPED NEXT WEEK...SO IT IS A MUTE POINT.
