17135, Update to my cars never ending problems...long..
Posted by toykilla, Mar-07-02 09:52 AM
As some of you may know my air/fuel gauge and boost controller have been giving me massive problems. Im 100% sure my o2 is gone because there is gasoline on my rear bumper. haha, is that rich or what? I get like 10miles to a gallon. I also re-did all wiring AGAIN and the boost controller still doesnt want to work. Its coming off tomorrow and Im making my own til I get mine back. Atleast my car isnt leaking as much oil as it was when I first turbo'd it. Also, my HRC FPR recently starting working correctly. (start car, 50psi, after its warm 45-50psi) Hopfully after i get the o2 from autozone, it will be the end of my problems.


**For those of you who dont know, being rich makes your car slow as hell, I did a run with my HKS turbo timer and my 1/4 time was 15.92.**

Note: When I frist got the turbo and everything was working at first,(same boost, 6psi) and I got a 14.3. Those are with really lame starts as well, i wasnt use to having soo much power at first and I spun like hell off the line. =]

Yes bro - we all do. Our cars have moods...sometimes they run strong, sometimes like crap. One good thing is Problems = solutions = knowledge = power.
