Do you have a volt gauge to make sure you have enough volts? Somebody last year had a problem they werent getting enough volts. just throwing stuff out there try to help.

I don't.. Both times Shane tuned it I had a alternator cel.. I might just get a new alternator and see what that does.

What alternator should I get? I've heard a saturn one is good but also a galant vr4 one too? which is better? I want to get this thing ready for proving grounds this year! gonna be a beast if my plans pull through. I'm keeping my current setup but want to fix the break up issues and see if I can turn up the boost to make the 600awhp mark. I want at least 35 psi as I made 542awhp in shoot out mode on Shanes dyno. Whatever it takes and let er buck!

The galant one will just bolt right up, have you checked your grounds?
I'd add some too, it can't hurt.

I picked up a new/used alternator from Nick (Cornfed2.4) but I'm running into probelms. No fuel pressure and I'm not hearing my fuel pump turn on at all... I am no wire wiz so this sucks.. I checked in line fueses and they all seem legit so I'm not quite sure where to start.. I know I should be checking voltage but I suck at doing that lol. Wiring is the worst of my abillities of working on my car.

I want this thing ready for proving grounds this year! haha

Is the car at your place? I could maybe swing over sometime this week or next weekend and help you with it

Maybe check the fuse on the boost a pump. Mine blew once which left me stranded with no power going to the pump.

+1 for what brad said. There is also the mpi relay under the dash that may have gone bad. It's a gold box located under the radio on the right side.

Same thing happened to be with your old BAP... Except I was at RF. I had to jumper wire it to run again and get home.

I checked all in line fuses including the BAP.. And yes it'a located at my place still. That would be cool if you were able to swing by and give a hand sometime this week.
