35619, What's wrong with this turbo set-up?

Posting this for a friend and his situation so let's see

i just need advice on what to do this is weird. okay here goes. so the car battery ended up was draining because a terminal was loose. so i got a new battery and made sure the terminals are tight. here is the thing now. when i drive it during the day or when i don't turn on my headlights everything works fine. the guage bounces around like it should be. the problem is when i turn my headlights on. when i do that the guage doesn't bounce around and sometimes it acts like it is going to stall, and the turbo doesn't really work. you can hear it and stuff but it's like it doesn't catch to get going ya know. it just kind of puts around. only for awhile though then it gets going okay but the thing still doesn't bounce around. then sometimes the boost guage lite will flicker and then shut off. so i don't know what's goin on. let me know asap so i can figure stuff out. auto zone said the alternator was fine, and like i said before the check engine light came on when that boost guage light shut off. he said it was because of the O2 sensor but later that day the check engine light shut off. so i don't know man. let me know what you think with the lights. i think that is kinda weird cause once you shut the headlights off the thing will go back to bouncing. thanks dude and sorry to bug if your busy. oh yeah i found some altezza's. $55 so i hope they are in good shape. he said no fogging or scratches so we'll see. thanks again dude.



can you tell that he has no f*ckin clue on what to do with the car?





ALL STOCK!! except for this extra radiator in front of my stock bumper

HUH???? Which gauge is bouncing? Where is the "SHIFT" key so we can start and stop sentences?
