ive looked and looked and i cant seem to find a good shop i can take my car out to in my area. so far everyone does not know anything about turbo cars or imports in general. if there is any dsm guys that would love to help me as well in the area would be great to. i never get a chance anymore to talk it up and have fun tuning with a gear head. :hellyeah:

So far here is my problem and i do have a thread on it in the newb forum. long story short. at 4,500 rpm ish my car goes from optimal air/fuel then it hits 100% rich which causes instant loss in power and tons of black smoke to come out the exaust. we throw it on the dyno to watch what happened in the testing to try to figure it out and the numbers were low. only 105whp and 152tq. also we cleaned the spark plugs before the runs and they were jet black after 2 runs soaked in fuel. like i said that rich jump.

also i have noticed that there is a decent amount of oil/fuel liquid inside my intercooler piping and i have alot of dark black condensation comming out my exaust.

HELP~~!!!!!
 
try cleaning the maf sensor thouroughly. see what happens. also make sure the blow off valve is not leaking. the plastic 2g BOV wear out easy. these can both cause your symptoms. eliminate them from the list and go from there. let me know what happens.
