Hey guys. Just bought a 2g Eclipse GST 1998 last week. Second day I had it (please dont flame) I missed a gear and it broke down on me.
The garage said the balance shaft belt broke which caused the crank sensor so go and hit on the timing and AC belt a bit. It could of been alot worse and Ive learned a quick hard lesson.
Anyway, got the car back yesterday and the idle was very rough. He said that it could need to "re learn" its idle or since I tried to start it fuel may still be in the lines. After I got it home (im not mechanically inclinded) I noticed a sensor was broke on the top of the engine. It was the MAP sensor. I was a at a buddys house and he said that would make the car idle rough so I just got a new one of those and put it on.
The car still idles rough. And sometimes even stalls at stops. I know it is tuned and here are the mods:
Mod list:
Sperco FMIC
Tial 35mm Wastegate
PTE 503IE Turbo
3'' Full Turbo Back Exhaust
High Flow Cat
Greddy Type-S BOV
Dejon Intake
FIC 750cc Injector
Denso Supra 260 Fuel Pump
ACT 2600 Clutch
DSM Chip Stage 3
TurboXS Manual Boost Controller
Autometer A/F & Boost Gauge
B&M Short Shifter
Tanabe Lowering Springs (1.5f/2.0r)
I shot a quick video so you guys can hear it. Do you think it may need to be retuned after doing these repairs? Something else I could of messed up or need to reset?
Any help would be great.
Thanks Jay!

I had to give the car gas for it to start back up.
