farting on the road...

[zyrusp]

okay here it is...i just installed a pacesetter exhuast and headers and an injen ram intake...before i left to come over here to iraq i had to drive my talon from north carolina to california and had no problem...but just before i left...my talon started to fart everytime in between shifts...never had it before....i cant find any air leaks so what do you guys think is my problem...?? thanks for your help

i was expecting something diffrent. oh well..

i dont suppose you have a logger where you can look at your 02's do you?

Probably a crack in those damned PaceSetters which are allowing some air to be drawn into the exhaust on over-run, igniting the unburned fuel and causing farts.

Well besides the fact that this is a little off-topic......My RFL was sorta doing the same thing when I addeda few more washers to it. I dont know much about the SSQV, but Im guessing its adjustable? Make sure you dont have the spring or whatever too tight. If you arent running a whole lot of boost (which I'm guessing you arent, since you dont have an upgraded turbo listed in your vehicle profile), it wont be enough to push open the BOV and it kinda farts or flutters. Like I said, I dont know much about the SSQV's so this may not even apply to you....

this also happens when im stepping on the gas alittle hard too.. i see the boost meter rise fast and then it starts making a farting noise..... i dont know what it is.... i need help with this problem tho cuz its really aggravating me

my friend 91 supra turbo does that when he had his full 3" exhaust. when he put his car back to stock it stopped the popping noise. he told me his car was back firing so i am assuming that your car might be back firing.
