could this be why my car wasnt running right?

Well guys I might have found a problem. In the installation instructions it states to connect the factory boost solenoid to something to give it a signal and the cel wont come on. Well I read that afterwards and I took off the boost solenoid and I got a cel. Could this cause any problems? Could it explain why the car did 234 whp on a 50 trim setup with supporting fuel, tuning, intercooler mods? Thank you.

not sure, alot of times if your CE LIGHT is on the ecu will go into limp mode, horrendously hurting performance. but im not sure if for something so incoherent like the factory boost control solenoid not being hooked up electrically it would put you in limp mode. just plug the nipples on the factory boost control solenoid and leave the elec harness plugged in and you wont get a cel.

well thats where i have a problem. I took off the factory boost solenoid and now I cant find it. AHHH. Well I sent a signal to the harness and the CEL came off and now the car runs like crap.

I removed the BCS and it it threw a CEL (although it was already on for 3 different reasons) and it did nothing to the car. My CEL has been on for 2 years, so I doubt that's your problem.
