Blew My Uicp

Yeah, so on the way home from dropping my girl off at work i hit boost, go nowhere and hit fuel cut all at the same time. Im glad i acutally pay attention on these borads or i would have freaked out thinking i just fucked my car. Eased it home, took out a screwdriver and put one of the clamps on my UICP back on. All in all not too bad, time for Smirnoff.

:toast:

Happened to me a couple times. Thought I blew the turbo the first time as I was launching. Eased it the few blocks home and fixed it. No biggie.

Need to have those pipes bead rolled and get some good clamps on there and you wont have the problem again.

Ive heard people doin this with SRTs, and I guess its pretty scary if its never happend to you before. Id prolly freak out for a seconed, I know my heart would skip a beat, but then that would be the first thing id check...
Man I hope that never happens to me, LMAO.
Glad you got it taken care of.

Its not that bad... just feels like the car died. The only problem is when the car acutally dies and doesnt run anymore and the power steering cuts out while your driving weeee

From the people ive heard about they said it was loud, i suppose though it could be either or.

It's not a big deal. Happened to my car a coupe times before it committed suicide

that sounds like a good idea when i finally throw on this front mount i made.

that happened to me the first time i boosted hard in my rally car. hit 22psi, then bam- no power, slowly decelerating, then the car dies. talk about a heart attack.
