Happy to see at least someone's gonna get their **** running right.


Wish I could say the same for myself. RETed, you seem to be one of the more knowledgable, straight-up people around here. I'd appreciate some help from you over AIM. I'm troubleshooting everything and still no luck. I'll PM you if you want.

Um, I'm about to leave work in an hour, so AIM is highly unlikely - not to mention I'm falling asleep right now.

Best thing to do is to shoot an email to me at:
reted_2000@yahoo.com

This the email addy I check most often.
I prefer email - PM's are a pain in the ***. :P

I'll be back into work in about 10 hours from now...

Archangels a couple of days ago my T2 was doing that and I could hear the turbo spooling like crazy but when the car started to boost it would spit, sputter, kick, wouldn't hold idle, and then died. What it turned out to be was the hose coming off the top of the turbo going into the intercooler had melted in two. I put another hose on and problem was solved.

hahahahaha, but RETed i have to ask, my car feels like a slug, it's only boosting 7psi and feels like an NA but i know it's boosting....

could this be because my greddy profecB is only set at 26% gain?...

if i put it back too 10psi will i get the "slam me in the seat" effect again?...
