New and need some serious help

[LingLing]

Hey man, I'm no pro, but I've had my time under the hood of a DSM. I live in Mankato, but my parents live in Stillwater. I may be coming up to see them in a week or so. If our schedules work, I can stop by and help you out. If you pick those struts/springs up from TurboDomestics, I can help you throw those in. Free of charge of course. PM me if you're interested.

Oh, and welcome to the best damn DSM site around.

Dang! I thought i had it bad . . .So are you planning on towing the car since your parents wont let you drive it? Or are you just going to try and limp it there. My car was more on the Flat Bed Then It actually spend Driving on the road during the 1st couple months. I should have invested in a flat bed. Hope you get it figured out keep us updated.

It sounds like you are in way over your head right now. This is what you have installed on the car right now for a turbo kit http://www.turbosystem.com/auto/eclipse/eclipsestage2.htm along with a crane ignition box, greddy type s bov, and possibly a manual boost controller based on the vacuum lines coming off the turbo and wastegate (cant see it though). The hahn turbo kit is a fantastic, very trusted, and proven turbo kit for the 420a powered eclipse. 8 psi on the stock bottom end is completely safe with the hahn kit. I can also see that it is running the basic cartech rising rate fuel pressure regulator that comes with the hahn kit. I had a hahn turbo kit installed on my car for 7 years until going bigger this year. Based on appearance only everything looks to be in place and installed correctly. Let me know if you have more questions or concerns.

OK so here's a little update with some questions. I started to look at all of the wiring located under the hood. I have found about 4 wires (as of now) that are just randoms with caps on the end and some just bare. I was wondering if thats normal. Some of the wires are coming from the inside (not sure from where yet) and some from off of the cams. They seem like they are just making it look shitty. I will try to post some pics in the coming days as i continue to work. Suggestions and help are needed ha. Thanks

There should be no bare wires under your hood. I'd be careful and disconnect your battery while working on it to be sure you don't get shocked. I would wrap some electrical tape over the bare wires in the mean time.

Try and trace the wires back to where they end up at and try and post pictures.

Where about in woodbury are you? Do you have a garage to work on it in? I might have some time next week if you're still stuck on it. I'm no 420 expert but have some experience wiring and what not.

i am located by stonmill and I just have my moms garage which i like. I have been trying to trace them and its just shocking to me that there are just plain wires. I figured they all have a purpose. The battery is dead so im good there.

I am still stuck and its frustrating me. i just cant seem to figure stuff out. i think its lack of experience and lack of tools for the most part. Any suggestions??
