Ok i had to repost ### someone decided to be a jerk but anyways here are the posts i made before and im hoping someone can help me out because i need my car fixed before we get yet another hard winter hit. let me know what you guys theink thanxs.

Ok i have had my 97 gsx eclipse for almost a year now and over the summer i did some minnor mods. Intake, BOV, Upper IC pipe, boost controler (dont use tho), and a breather. However, here recently i have been having problems with my car in the cold. i can be driving and i will get really bad turbo lag in 1st and 2nd and my check engine light kicks on. i was wondering if anyone has had this problem before or what is going on? does it have anything to do with my mods and the cold or is something really messed up?

Another problem im having is an extreme vibration coming from the panels in the car. the only conclusion i can come to is that i need a wheel alignment dur to the fact that going stright it loud turning left is louder and turning right it goes quiet. if you guys could help me out and possibly give me any suggestions as to what to do or if any of you are having the same deal. thanxs

Just another update for you guys to maybe help me out, the check engine light did turn back on today. It seems to happen as soon as I leave from a dead stop. It feels like it's turbo lag sometimes but others think it might be the tranny. but if I floor it at the light it bogs way down and putt putts a little then it just grabs and goes. Any ideas?


thanxs for all the imput guys. nice to know i have somewhere to go to to get some help. my schedual is pretty busy but i deffinetly think im going to try to get to autozone annd find out what code it is. hopefully they can still find it even tho i reset the light. and the more i talk to people the more i do think its probly the barings in the wheels. ice drifting probly plays a role in the damage to that one. and just to show u how much im in the hole i also need a new battery and i have $500 worth of damage from some hit and run punk. thanxs again guys ill post back up with an update soon.


ok guys heres another update and im hoping this will help. today driving down the highway at about 75mph the car bogged down and had a huge backfire. it sounded like someone just shot a cannon ball out of my tail pipe. so i went to autozone did the ecu read and it told me i have a misfire in cylinder 4 any ideas?

can anyone please help me out here. i need to get this thing fixed. i think that maybe just a nice lil tune up might do wonders. sparks wires coil ect...
