simplification achieved problems though :(
 
so i just finished the seq. simplification on my '93, and stupid me forgot to connect a coolant line. started it up and it spewed coolant everywhere. no biggy i got a new hose clamped it in, and started it back up. now there is white smoke billowing out the exhaust. i was wondering if that is the coolant burning off, or if it is a problem that has occured. my car is completely stock. running out to get some coolant now to replace lost coolant. thinking about taking it out for a drive.

smoke is gone must have been burning something off. took it for a drive and dont seem to have the power i should. i know i am runnind less boost since i dont have a boost controller, but with 7 psi i hould still be getting better pull out of the car. when i rev it while sitting still almost sounds like i have a BOV from escaping air. not sure if that means i have a vac leak or not. also still leaking coolant. looks like im tearing it down again :( if anyone ha any ideas as to what the problem might be i would like to hear their diagnosis.
