7 pros advice please
Hey guys,
I just installed an HKS TO4E single turbo, with a greddy FMIC. I am using a Pettit Unlimited ECU until I can get a power FC. I also am using the stock elbow with the stock blow off valve hooked up to it until I can get someone to weld on my Apexi BOV. I installed a fully open exhaust system as well, and moved my battery to the trunk to accomodate the IC. Alright, today I ran it for the first time, and my A/F gauge reads that my car is running more rich than before which I didn't think would happen, my boost gauge read about 5 lbs, because I am trying to keep the boost down until I get a stand alone fuel system. After running it for a while, at a red light, the car died and would start for a while. Then it started and upon driving it around a little, it wound up stalling again at another red light, and once again started a little while later. What could be causing this? Is it the stock BOV located way back on the elbow? Could it be it is actually flooding itself? Could it be that it isn't getting enough air because the HKS filter is really close to the hood when closed which needs to be relocated? Could it be that my battery isn't grounded well enough? How about the boost isn't turned up high enough? Let me know what you guys think please, any help is always very well appreciated!
Thanks,
Jason
