#970, "turbo problems..."


          

alright...i haven't posted because i've been waiting for my car...
well, it's been 3 weeks now- and i just got it back from the shop
got the turbo installed...
they forgot to install the clutch and get the turbo timer and boost controller...
unfortunatley- i got even more screwed...
i drove her- she was a ferocious kitty...
and 5 psi felt pretty nice...though i know she can put out more it was ok...
then, on the freeway, everything was going well, until i noticed the car sputtering a little in 5th...i was at about 73 mph
odd...
kept driving- had to...
and then the car sputters real bad...and i try accellerating and it won't budge...rpm's drop...car dies...
pulled over into breakdown lane...
tried starting her up...would barely take- sputtered, i revved, it took a little, then gas wasn't flowing- the rpm's dropped...
what was weird- the fuel pres. was normal...
i have no clue what this could be...
i'm towing this to the shop tomorrow- and they're going to pay for both tows...fuck them.
any ideas?
my check engine light was on- even when i got it from the shop...
flashed oil too...weird...
i'm just pissed off...not only did they take three weeks- but i still payed full price...
to hell with them...
well, i'll post soon to let you guys know what's up...
