I'll get some driving vids in a few days. I have to get pick up a MAP sensor from the dealership today, and I also broke the hood latch cable so I have to find one of those. Until then, not much driving for me.

Well after a few problems and holdups, along with a scary event in which I lost all my oil (no big deal, a missing plug), I'm on the road. Everything sounds okay, as far as I can tell. For the most part, I have stayed out of boost. So, I really don't know what this car can do yet. I mean, driving home from the shop today, I could hit the gas and feel the torque, but I don't know really anything yet. I'll get a video up soon.

Hm..... didn't know I was that popular. Yeah I've been back for a while, but there are a few problems and I'm holding off on pictures and video until it's running well. I mean boosting well.

Nutmeg · Post by **Nutmeg** » Sat Aug 16, 2008 2:43 am

So uh, I'm going to buy a new turbo. Mine is bad.

yellowpatrol · Post by **yellowpatrol** » Sat Aug 16, 2008 9:01 am

Well that's exciting!

That sucks...what exactly is wrong with the turbo you have?

Nutmeg · Post by **Nutmeg** » Sun Aug 17, 2008 5:51 pm

Inspected the turbo, turns out it seems fine, with no shaft play. Whenever I turn the engine off, I can hear what sounds like the turbine coming to a stop, so I worried it was scraping.

Nutmeg · Post by **Nutmeg** » Sun Aug 17, 2008 6:52 pm

Turns out a quick reset and recheck of all vac lines did the trick. I just never reset the battery after I put in the TIP. I only did a few quick 1-2 pulls, but got about 12 psi in second. Yay! I'll get pictures and video soon. Well, I'll be gone all next week, so maybe not too soon.

But yay!

yellowpatrol · Post by **yellowpatrol** » Sun Aug 17, 2008 6:58 pm

lame I was hoping you'd go big turbo!

Nutmeg · Post by **Nutmeg** » Sun Aug 17, 2008 8:09 pm

Me too... haha but the swap already took enough money.
