Where is the gauge reading pressure/vac from? Is there a check valve on the line?
Is your wastegate open dump or recirculated?

What you mean sometimes... All day. :mrgreen:

Was going to ask what the actual hold up on the tune was but you answered. Where the hell do you live thats so remote theres no shops in driving distance to tune from? I thought R13 was the only one who lived in the woods. :laugh: <3 f*** anything around 1000 is like :roll: I dont know if Raceline charges more for a turbo tune (kinda doubt it) but his rate is a flat $350 all day. Too bad thats in cali and i know youre not from around here.

car looks great! I agree with the White valve cover =)

 

[Muckman]

Did you sort out your boost problems or did you give up on troubleshooting?

It's still there but I don't want to mess up the car since it's not tuned so I'll probably have the shop whos tuning it figure out the boost problem. I think that the vaccuum lines got mixed up somewhere or hooked up wrong.

Thanks! It's what makes the car fun. My daily driver is a honda civic it's not fun!

It needs repainted so I may do white! I just had someone call my car a ricer because the engine bay is purple.

And do you care what they think?

It could be as simple as that. I was at raceline when elton was tuning and troubleshooting a turbo, no boost, and after reinspecting some lines, the owner of the car hooked them up backwards. Cant hurt to go back over the install procedure like a check list.

You said recently the turbo was checked while the motor was out and it was good. How was the condition of the motor?
