Well, I was cruising along today doing a brisk 80 mph and as I moved to the left to pass a car in front of me, I kept in 5th and tried accelerating. I really didn't go anywhere and my RPMs felt like it took forever to get moving. The car continued to act like this until i reached work and on the ride home. It idled at about 750 rpms, when my normal idle is more around 1000. Also, in every gear my boost wouldnt go past 11 psi when I have my mbc set at about 14 psi. The car hasnt given me any problems since the 6 bolt swap and now I'm hoping this isnt something serious. Any help at all is really appreciated. Thanx :thumb:
 
So.... where does the weird vibration come into play?
Run a boost leak test first and make sure that's good.
Check your spark plugs, and post back with the vibration answer. :thumb:
 
I brought her in to the mechanic today to get it checked out. Seems like it needs new plugs and wires. I'm getting her done friday so hopefully all is good after that. Thanx :thumb:
