    [SOLVED] Boost hits, car falls on its face?

    found the issue, timing was off just a tiny bit, corrected it, runs great now! @neganox i would have thought it was the injectors but we had put new ones in when we did the work. Looks like this one was my bad! lol. Thanks though guys, I was starting to run out of ideas!

    [SOLVED] Boost hits, car falls on its face?

    Nah, had the whole head taken off including manifolds/turbo. Havent gotten a chance to get the cat out and take a look at it, if it isnt that then I will be at a loss. hopefully it doesnt give too much of a hard time.

    [SOLVED] Boost hits, car falls on its face?

    double and triple checked it, that was one of the first things that popped into my head, thinking it could be a clogged cat, has a high flow cat on it so i will pull that off and check it.

    [SOLVED] Boost hits, car falls on its face?

    I'm a bit stumped with this one, Taking a look at a first gen speed3 just did a basic refresh on it (loss of compression in cylinder 1&4) since we started it up its been running a bit rough, idling low, revving slowly. hpfp pressure under about half throttle is jumping up to 1800ish psi. Car is...

    Benefits of being on bags! I can go to stock height or above if i want to, Ride is terrible, but I dont scrape, I generally drive around with a partially tucked tire front and rear, just kind of fitted. Roads here arent the best, i just know which ones to drive high on lol. I do love the coil...

    I had wanted to do a manifold for a while, And I had the flanges sitting around so I decided to go for it This was the first version, Had some issues with fitment, as it was too tall to get past the firewall, could have possibly worked if I removed the engine, But i wanted something that could...

    Gen Pu on my gen Juan

    The Gen2 wheels are a good looking wheel, I like the style, however they just arent enough. I wanted a bare minimum of 18X9 so I could get more tread on the ground. Then i ended up stretching 225's on a 9.5. oh the irony

    Forgot to post how terrible it looked before I installed the bags. Stock height and wheel gap is hideous lol. This was basically what it looked like before I went through and got it to sit the way I wanted it to. Most of these are immediately after Install of the Bags

    Here is what I could find of the air system install, obviously it was alot more involved than what is shown, But it was a great kit, and went in easy with no issues, Have about 20k on the kit and have had zero issues other than rubbing through a steel braided line with my wheel, which was my...
