OK... Got the BIG16G in... Did all my mods... Got the car running... Got it tuned...

Now.. My next step in the wonderful world of DSM.

I got a CEL yesterday after about 130miles on the new turbo. The car as you drive likes to bog at cruising speeds. Under boost its fine. My boost feels weird at only 10-11psi. I have a MBC but the screw in peice fell out yesterday. So that sucked! .. So now I have that problem. It like to be boggy in 1st gear alittle and at idle... Idle is like this...

rrrrrrrr.ttrr..trrr...rrrrr... like rought idle... Just really strange. I was told to check my 02 sensor and replace it. I will have it scanned tomorrow to see what the CEL came on for.

Thanks,
Kendel

my car is doin the same thing, it idles real low and rough like its going to stall but it doesn't, and then when im not boosting it likes to bog down when im driving, but when i start boostin it is fine. Some one told me to check for vac leaks and something about ISC going bad but i wasn't too sure what that is, i've yet to check either but i'll let you know if i can fig anything out.
 
Also check for an intake leak. Check all clamps and couplers from the MAF to the turbo to the Intercooler to the throttle body.

Good luck
