Ok the car was runing great right, so I was like well lets get all this extra wireing for the old sub system out of here.. did that car was still runing good. So I tuck the silancer off the MAF and put on a K&N and hacked air can.

now all day today the idel has been fuged up.. droping to 1400 then 1300 and back and forth then finaly seteling after being stoped for a min at 1200-1k Well tonight comeing home I was just cruseing in 2nd gear comeing up to a parking lot so I could look at the new "cool blue" Silver star head lights I installed and as soon as I put it in nuetral and the rpms droped, the car died... :confused: ok so I let that go as just odd.. well then it did it again...

the car still seems to pull fine though.. it was a virgin performance wise untill I did thoughs things to it. Only other thing I have done was run a vac hose from the compressor outlet nipple to the waste gate and disconnected the BCS crap.


WTF gives???
 
Did you unplug the wiring from the BCS or just the vacuum lines? If you unplugged the wiring, plug it back in and just secure the BCS out of the way. The ECU is trying to activate/deactivate the solenoid, without that connection it gets confused. Good luck.
 
Really? I could have swarn at Twisted tuneing, they just riped it out completely.. well damn im going to go hook that shit back up right now, and see if it idels right..

Well it seems to have helped.. sorta.. it's not stalling/dieing now but it still tried twice. Of crose all I did was drive down the road and back so maybe now it has to relearn it???? :confused:

Would reseting the ECU make things go quicker?

Also I checked the ICS and on pins 1 and 2 (I think I checked the right ones) the book says there should be 28-33 ohms and it didn't read any..) I must have checked the wrong pins or something.. (and yes ignition was on)
 
Well I guess the BCS hooked up or not dont matter, it's still doing it..:mad: This is actuly more anoying than not being able to shift into 4th without grinding.. (well I can but only if If the shift takes like 3sec)

Which and how many screens did you remove from the MAF ?

No I did not. And to the guy above..................................Yes!


*EDIT* Why would I remove one of the honeycombs on the MAF on a mostly stock car? Not like I want it runing lean.
