Thanks everyone! I love my trooper!

8/11/12
Perrin Filter and maf adapter installed per Dan H. from MAP with a hell of a deal! Thanks for meeting up with me and picking this up for me! I appreciate it much! A++ service right there.
Sometime last week I installed the 2gb talon wing as well. The reason I chose Perrin is because I saw a picture of a spectre on MAP's feed and well. That thing sucked itself into the turbo.

Unfortunately, I do not have my phone cable to hook up to my computer so hold on to your seats cause a big update is bound to happen soon. With pictures.

A few pieces away from going green.:usa1:

Have you seen my pretend smart phone? It won't let me do it.

14b on corn for now to get the kinks all worked out. Baby steps. Then from there. Who knows. ;)

Found a cable.

The turbo screams now and is holding solid 12psi. Forewarning, the thing is oily as hell! Wear gloves.

Lol t25 on corn = death. car should be pretty fun on corn and small turbo. I loved my old 14b car on death mode.

Car looked really good yesterday, Pat. Didn't give you much of a deal, I just ate the tax and the cc fee, but being a former dsm'er, gotta help out the community haha! Those perrin filters are def. oily, one of my favorite pairs of shorts got ruined by one haha.

Good luck with the corn venture!

I should have raced you yesterday, before the switch to corn, so I dont get myself embarrassed haha.

Car started acting up today. It's like it's misfiring and just wants to die while cruising or even when in boost. It bogs down like it's hitting fuel cut. When it was sputtering I would step on the gas and nothing but sputter, but it would go into boost. I let off the gas and just let it do its thing til it was "normal" again. Parked it, started it up and it died right away. Started it again and tried to see if my stock intercooler pipes came off, nope. Let it idle for a bit and it stuttered like how it was for a bit then all of a sudden, everything worked again. Drove it around the block, boosted fine, idled fine, part throttle was fine. 1/4 throttle was fine. Then it all came back but not as bad as earlier in the day when I met up with Goodhart.

So I went to Advanced auto and used their scanner and this is what I found:
P1105 Fuel pressure solenoid
p0443 EVAP system purge control valve circuit
P0505 Idle Control system
P0110 Intake air temperature circuit
P1104 turbo charger wastegate solenoid
P0403 EGR Solenoid

I know the FPR is probably bad because i have a 255 in the tank and need to get a afpr, okay easy. Sounds like other people with this same code are having issues that are close to what I am experiencing.

The turbocharger wastegate solenoid, I have a MBC on there, no care.

EVAP and EGR, emissions was removed.

Idle control system, Could be another reason why it's doing what it's doing.

IAT, would that also be a contributing factor as well?

Anyway, I get to hold of a little longer til I try and get this h8 ecu reflashed. Anybody on here have experience with it on a 2ga? Do I need the 1g black cas?

Finally out!

After a whole days affair, I honestly didn't think it'd take that long but watching John from IPT helped A TON!

Car runs fine now. I don't think my mas was plugged in all the way that caused it to hesitate.
