Yes you read right. Theres something extremly wrong.
I build no boost at times.
CEL comes on for mis fire n all 4 cylinders(which is probly coming from the engine bay getting WAY to hott from the mani)
Car runs like shit.
So I started to think of things that could be wrong, found out that a bolt that goes through the mani to the turbo is missing....is that a BIG problem? I think it is..also could my waste gate be getting stuck open?
I'm lost here thanks.
Sorry if this wasn't very grahamer for yall..not soo good with words.
 
Its normal for the manifold to glow. The misfire would make it run bad. The bolt that is missing needs replaced. You might have a wastegate problem, but i would get the code taken care of first.
