OK , I just puled out of the movie rental place and the sh!t hit the fan ,so to speak. I pulled out ,1st gear real nice and easy. then I hit 2nd gear and start getting on it a little ,about 3,800 rpm ,and she takes a nose dive. I mean I almost hit my face on the stearing wheel. Instantly my hart sank . I pulled over shut it down and poped the hood and cheked the t-belt ,it was fine . I get back in the car and start it , she sound alwright ,and revs up alwright. So I pulled back on to the road and start to go cautiouslly .It has no power and no boost , and strats too buck like a wild stalion, Oh sh!t I think to my self . I limped it home ,about two miles , she wouldnt go over 20 mph . I got home and started to investigate . I pulled the intake off to get a look at the turbo and the blades seam to move freely , so I don't know if its the turbo or not. I really need some HELP here , so if anyone knows what this sounds like PLEASE let me know. Im really scared for my girl (the car that is).
 
Hmm.. where to start? I would first check to make sure something obvious like a coupling didnt come off your IC pipes didnt come loose. A logger would definately help in finding error codes. Also check your spark plugs for any signs.
 
Haha, I just did another serch of my motor and found the problem. The other day I took off my intake elbow to polish it , and I did a d@mn good job , its like a mirror . Well I gues because it is so slick now that the upper IC hose blew right off. Good call_ fast _ talon_ Anyway its fixed now ,(thank god).:p :laugh: :thumb:


Thanks alot !!!
