alright my fellow dsmers, i need some help and second opinions. ive searched through the threads and cant find anyone with a problem quite like mine. i bought a gsx from california last summer and drove it back to my state. the next day i got into an accident and totaled the car but it wasnt a loss so we spent months fixing er up and now she looks better than she did before. but we overlooked the turbo and discovered it was broken on the internals and wasnt boosting at all so after a few months we got another one and put it in the car. during that time the maf was sitting out and accumalated some dirt which we also overlooked. after we attatched the new turbo we hooked it all back up and went for some pulls which it boosted fine. let it sit for 30 minutes and did another pull only this time i hit full boost shift into second and all of a sudden the car starts stalling out and a code comes up for the maf. we clean the maf sensor a few weeks later and try to start it up only this time shes having some trouble. very rough and uneasy to start but once the engine turns over it idles and then dies. if i try it again and shes idling the moment i hit the gas pedal it dies. so either way it dies with or without gas. weve swapped the ecus, swapped the fuel filter, the guys replaced the pump a year ago but my fear is its gunked up or gone bad. its had the same gas sitting in it for close to 7 months and during the time period its been driven a very short distance so mostly just sitting. any opinions ?? would really appreciate the help
