Ok, my bud just got his car on Monday. He got it shipped from maryland here to cali. Has a built motor wit about 1500 miles on it. Motor has Eagle rods, Weisco 9.0 compression pistons, mitsu metal HG, ARP main bolt and head studs. The car has a 14b on there with blue top JDM 450cc injectors, 3" turbo back exhuast, FMIC and 2" LIC and 2.25" UIC and Blaha MAS.
problems: He came to me telling me there is a boost leak. I took it for a test spin boosted 6psi then sputters and more gas = more sputtering and shaking, the BOV was faint, pulled over and found a broke vac line off the BOV. Checked his AFC setting and it was at 2 cyl instead of 4cyl. I don't know what kind of damaged that may have caused. I asked him if he played with the AFC hen he got it and he said he pressed a few button etc, but not know what to do or how to oppperate the AFC. Ok, so I set everything to correct on the AFC. Take it for another test drive and it boost bout 10psi then bam, sputters again. I'm not hitting FC I know that. It doesn't feel nor sound like a boost leak. I'm running out of ideas on what it can be. Anyone, please help. Also there is a weird vibration that goes from the engine bay to the of the car running on the passenger side. it happens when I let off the gas.
