As some of you know I had to get the new billet FPR HRC/Cartech sells. I installed it last night and its damn senistive at idle. I dont know about under boost operations because before I could drive the car my brand new SS braided oil feed line started leaking. Im taking that back today so it shouldnt be long before I am boostin again. The connection on the turbo where the SS braided oil feed line goes also striped. Im hopfully going to find one around here but I doubt it. Any ideas about where they might sell them?? Lowe's, Home Depot, Ace Hardware is what im thinking but they seem to let me down a lot so any other ideas? Maybe a plumbing place or some kind of marine/boat place??

well try lowes first they have had just about all the fittings that i needed but a plumbing store will probally stock just about anything all you really need is an 1/8" npt elbow piece right?

which part of the fitting? i broke the part that actually screws into the turbo, and NO ONE had it, cause its metric on one side and standard on the other. had to order it from hahn.

I actually modified it and made one myself so thats working right now. The car is faster than its EVER been. One problem still remains. When I was testing the car it started not funuctioning under boosted operations again. Infact, it wont even let me go into boost. I have new plugs, new coil and im getting enough fuel for the 1psi it goes to. This only happens when the car is warmed up but I also replaced all vacuum lines. I have my tach going directly to the coil. Could the tach be messing up the coil and not providing the enough power?? This never happened til I hooked tach up to coil.

It started happening before the car would warm up. Not only under boosted operations either. I cant even floor the car when sitting in my garage. It gets to about 4krpms then stops, If I the accelerator lightly I can bring it all the way to 7k but not when its floored.
