If he didn't need it more than I do I'd offer you some money for it. That and I'm not running an internal wastegate.

 

[neox.286]

lol, you can run external wastegate on it...you just gotta get a 3-bolt discharge flange =P

 

[orng1]

Not for me, never again!

im in a crap computer..... i have a check engine light on mybe do to the crack

 

[jeanspeed]

[jeanspeed]

the wg actuator?? it's really easy. it's like a c clip on the one side and it slides off. and probably a bolt or 2 on the turbo side i would think.

 

[jeanspeed]

i have the tool for the c cilp. im just jacking it from work. oh it an atp IWG for now. so i have to take to bolts of the turbo????

2 bolts on the WG go through a bracket on the turbo. unclip the w/g and then the 2 bolts and pull it out. easy. done.

 

[jeanspeed]

ok i get tghe two bolts ur talking about... quote(w/g and then the 2 bolts and pull it out.

 

[jeanspeed]

hey boostdprotegelx have u got ur msp. if u did if u take off ur stock and and put it for sell let me know

 

[Dpwhitehead1]

will do!

 

[jeanspeed]

im s*** it running good now i fell like the turbo is spooling faster now and the air/ fuel is about 14.5 rather than 17.5 which my car was almost turnnig off. thanx for helping me out. still have that crack.

Double, triple, quadrouple check for any vaccum leaks. Change the oil and clean or swap the plugs now. The A/F ratios will be bad until you get the manifold dealt with.

 

[jeanspeed]

i m still spikin i step on it and it spikin but now it seems the car can take but scared to blowing it up again... i just want 7-8psi do u think it the boost controler. so i could take it off

 

[jeanspeed]

but other than those two thing its running great. will do . i will change the oil and the spark plug. which one for the motor.

 

[orng1]

Get rid of that boost controler until you figure out all the details. Just turning it off won't fix anything if it's hooked up wrong.

 

[orng1]

Oil? I'd do 10w30, but use conventional so you can change it out soon again. One more time with normal driving to flush out all the old oil then go with something synthetic.

 

[orng1]

I'm anxious to hear more about the car Hernan. Get rid of the stock mid pipe, it'll help get the A/F ratios back and keep the manifold from leaking or cracking to much more.
