car hardly idle and runs intercooler problem??

[lizoyd18]

last week i tried to switch to a fmic with short route piping the bottom pipe was way to short so i threw all the old piping on then my oil line broke when i got out of the driveway so today i got a new one and the car ran fine didn't push it then i couldn't hear the bov so much then it started to die so i pulled over thinking it was my intercooler pipe but i checked everything is tight and im feeling for holes there is none..i had to push my car home and i cant figure it out no codes came up everything is plugged but i can see oil is still leaking but that cant be the problem i switched my intake as well can anyone help??

yiikes bro, every one of your post seems to be because of your dsm breaking down..

anyways, everyone who sees this will first tell you to do a boost leak test.. you obviously did not have this problem before you were messing around putting the fmic kit on, then putting back the stock one.. so the problem started somewhere along those lines.. meaning user error and most likely a boost leak test.

do a proper one, with a boost leak tester.

also make sure you didn't do the typical n00b move, which a lot of veterans still do every now and then.. which is plug the maf harness in

...and now you've just learned that the next time you blow an IC coupler you can unplug the maf (causing the ecu to use throttle position instead) and limp the car home if you have no other options.

It really does sound like you have a large boost/vacuum leak. Check all couplers, piping, etc. & boost leak test.
