Well, start with the regular steps.

1. Check the plugs, make sure none are fouled.
2. Check the plug wires and make sure there are no issues.
3. Make sure it's getting fuel.

If these don't seem to work for you, do a compression test and get back with the results.

1. Make sure all your lines are on correct, and you're not leaking from anywhere.

2. When the car is cold, take the intake off and check the turbo for any shaft-play.

3. See if it's smoking out the exhaust all.

4. Double check all your fluids, including your oil. Look for water in your oil when you check it, just to be sure.

5. Can you drive the car anywhere? See if it has any power?

6. Make sure your Blowoff valve is being recirculated back into the intake.

7. Look on top the throttle body, and make sure they BISS screw is still in the slot.




I'll pull out the old Haynes manual if none of these help you at all.

[fifthgearvtec]

also i gotta ask that is for the oil line that sits on top of the turbo right ?

If you think it's safe to drive, get to Advance Auto and have them check the engine code while you're there. There is no gasket for on top the turbo, only crush washers if you're talking about the oil line with the bolt. A crushwasher goes on both sides.

While you're at Advance Auto, you can pick up all the vacuum lines you need.

I'm not quite sure what you mean by charge and discharge pipe though? Are you talking about your intake pipe and lower intercooler pipe?
