A little background. I just rebuilt my FD with a Fresh block from Kevin Landers. All I have added to the car since rebuild was enfini Y-pipe, new crossover and a Downpipe.

I was able to solve my electrical and fuel related problems. The car starts up fine and runs. However My idle is high and after a couple mins the coolant temps get too high.

I have check the vacuum system over and over for leaks etc. all seems to be well, I have also visually inspected and tested the thermostat and water pump, both seem to be operating as they should. All hoses on the coolant system are firmly attached and there is no visable outside leaks. I have also blead the coolant system.

My next step is to check the waterthermosensor. as I have been noticing some very crispy wiring harness connectors.


Any thoughts ideas or help is greatly appreciated.

everything above has been solved.


here's the new problem..

car boosts to 10psi but not until around 5k rpms...

any ideas?

Double-check your vacuum hoses against the colored vacuum hose diagram. A loose, missing, or a pair of crossed hoses can cause the primary boost to vent to the airbox until the turbos hit parallel mode and all boost goes to the engine.

If you don't see anything incorrect, I'd run a KOKO test and see if things operate properly.

thanks very much, I will check and re-check
