My car just went crazy!!!!!
my turbos just started to make an extremly high pitched noise and I get no boost. The next thing I know the car is red lining and I am not touching the gas pedal. I put the car in neutral and it was still red lining, so I turned it off. I first checked the hoses to look for boost leak and saw nothing. After turning the car off and resetting the computer, when I turn the car on it still red lines. Could the problem with the turbos be a clogged main cat? I had a clogged pre but I replaced it with a dp. Thanks for any help

What odd is I have never heard of this happening. But I can guess to why it is. Things I would check. 1. gas pedal or throttle cable stuck, May test this theory by abruptly mashing the throttle a few times to make it get "unstuck". 2. TPS sensor gone wild and throttles the car up for some reason. 3. Injectors stuck wide open and somehow the O2 sensor reads it as needing more air and ecu sends it! FOr some reason I think its the cable stuck though. I used to get my gas pedal stuck under my floor mat in my Mustang. That was fun. Good luck. I have all sorts of outlandish ideas. What mods do you have?

I have a dp thats it. I don't think the gas pedal is stuck, because I popped the hood and watched the throttle while my friend hit the gas and it moves back and forth. However when i turn the car, on the throttle cable doesn't move. How would i get the FI's to close?
