Hey guys

i jsut finished swapping out my blown turbos and put a set of used stock twins which are in pretty good condition. when i first started my car it ran a little rough cause of idle but then i turned it down a bit and it ran really good. i went out to test drive it and if i gave it any decent amount of gas it would stutter and when i rev it it wont get passed 4000rpm i topped off all of the fluids and ive had premium gas sitting for about 6 months and i put fuel injector cleaner into the tank before i started driving it and i let it run for a bit i dont think that would have any effect on it what so ever but i could definitely use your guys help. any ideas what it could be? bad injectors?

 

The only thing you touched was the turbos? Nothing else? What ECU? What other mods? Anything you can think of that you did during the time the car was down would also help us figure out the issue for you.

 

oh yeah i went from seq to non seq stock cat back 3 inch dp stock ecu i will be getting a pfc soon within the next month or so

 

That is very important info I am guessing you didnt install resistors in the wiring harness did you? Install the resistors, reset the ecu and your problem will be fixed.

 

i installed the resistors

 

Reset the ecu and drive the car, watch the boost gauge, if when it gets to 0(between vacuum and boost) if that is when it back fires and stutters then you are in limp mode. I would make sure you installed all the correct resistors and make sure they are making a good connection. Definitely sounds as if the car is in limp mode.

 

Have you pulled the codes from the ECU yet?

 

i havent done anything with the ecu yet but i am buying a pfc in september sometime so i jsut want to have it running nice for the mean time but yeah im about to go out and reset the ecu and ill get back at you guys after ive done that.

 

ok guys i reset my ecu and all problems are gone!!!! but while i was driving it somehow my steering shot and its alot hareder to turn it im assuming its something to do with the power steering any ideas?

 

wow nevermind problem solved somehow my power steering tension came loose and my belt poped off thanks for the help everyone!!!!

 

Check the belt that goes onto to the pump, and also your fluid level.

 

oh and by the way if you have that tension id like to buy it.... its probably laying in a ditch somewhere and i dont really feel like going to find it

 

I have had that happen several times on teh stock ecu after installing a non-seq setup, where I had to reset the ecu and all was good. Glad it worked out for you.
