Will my fricken' luck ever change?

[santa]

Thanks nate.

I have not gotten to work on it at all. I got a list of stuff I'm doing..t-case seals, new tranny and t-case fluids..just cuz, and I didn't get the stock ignition stuff from the old house yet, as my old roommate wasn't there. I'm still looking for a bypass plug for the MSD. As for the revving I'm loosing hope. 2+ years chasing this issue, and it's pissing me off. I am considering just going to a smaller setup..maybe keep t4, but do a 6262 setup..I dunno yet. I seemed to do pretty well against a red corvette on 494, and then a red viper on 42, in my neck of the woods. Scurred the shit outta my mother too! ;)

lol! My Mom would never get in my car lol. Dude, what are you doing tomorrow. Bring the damn car up to my house and we will get this reving problem fixed. seriously what do you think?

We can pop my dsm link and coil pack in your car and see what that does. We have nearly the same setup...

still, remember half my car is missing as far as wiring is concerned. I dont' care to go re-wire everything. I have tried John's AEM box, so I atleast know FOR SURE mine is ok. I'm gonna try and get a coilpack and such from my old house with the wires tomorrow, and work on logging it, seeing what shane thinks. Also, on a side note, I am trying to work out in my head how to set up a switch for the logging feature on AEM so I may just turn the switch on and off. That way, I'm not logging EVERYTHING till I pull it with the laptop. I have it set up currently to log anything above -14 vac, 3500rpms, and more then 50% throttle. But, I'd rather log a broader range, without logging the whole time, so I'll figure out a switch.

Glad to see you're finally tossing that COP setup for now. You have to remember that when you tested it last time, it was with an AEM that was horribly wired, so that could have been a contributing factor before. I also vote making it run on DSMlink and ditch the whole AEM setup. AEM seems a little overcomplicated considering how capable and easy to use as DSMlink is.

eh..I like the AEM..i'm learning more and more about it..So, I will not ditch it. I know it seems everyone here seems to dislike it, and I'm one of the last few people on it, but whatever.

Don't get rid of the aem. That would be stupid of you imo. You'll just have to like everyone said throw a few stocker parts on until the problem is found, and go after it with a good dvom.

Hey man, I have AEM, and I have some learning to do, but I think it's cool. It also happens to be that I'm the only starquest owner using one (that I know of).

Good luck, holla if you need something.

I think I blew it up..turbo atleast. I dunno.

Was on my way to my rents for dinner, did a quick lil single gear pull..didn't even rev it all the way out, and it started to smoke. Blue smoke. Ever since..driving is ok, but as soon as you let off the gas and decel/vac then it smokes pretty decently. Also, when going from a stop, if you give it and kinda gas..nothing serious, but some it will smoke. regular driving, is ok no smoke seen in my mirrors. But, vac. it smokes. My exhaust is coated on the inside too of oil. Smelt of oil. I dunno if the turbo seals are blown. I know it was just sent in to PTE like a year ago for the fins all messed up, and I got a new CHRA. So, why it's blown is beyond me. I tried pulling the intake off, and it has slight shaftplay up and down, and I can't tell if any in/out. I also don't really know for sure what is considered "normal". But, do these symptoms sound like a blown turbo seal, or something more serious?

:( Hopefully its just the turbo.

Does it get any boost anymore? when mine went it would smoke all the time and would not create anymore boost.
