Back on the road.... with a few kinks.

Okay, so I am ecstatic to have my turbo back up and running, but I am not happy about the new problems it seems to have developed while sitting in storage! So here is the list (short)

1- Bucks when driving until warm on cold starts (I thought that replacing the MAF would fix this, but to no avail, TPS is adjusted, however I haven't put a multimeter to it in a while.)

2- After putting it under some load, you know, like if you've been following some grandma in a cadillac going ten under and just burn past her and the three cars in front of her too for good measure (yea Im an ***.) It won't hold an idle when you come to a stoplight. It's fine under normal driving conditions, but after a I floor it it doesn't like to stay alive.

any tips? suggestions?

I've flushed all the fluids, replaced the sparks...... really frustrating!

Thanks guys!

The idle problem isn't a vac leak. I'm thinking it may be either the alternator not charging right, or an electrical ground that gets loose when I'm flooring it. I'm going to check the connections tomorrow hopefully if I can get time.
