great video, drifting is where it's at hands down lol

i got the axles out finally thanks to a handy pry bar set, didnt look like there was any damage to the splines on either of the axles so i'm dropping the diff right now. my guess is that the damage is in the diff...yay

the car cruised home fine it only stumbles when you get on the throttle heavy so its almost like when it senses boost it stumbles. Ill have to order some 550's anyway so we'll have to wait to troubleshoot it then. I hate this cause I can feel the car wants to GO! then she falls on her face. frustrating

after sleeping on it a little I have come to think of a few problems it might be.
1-injectors dont flow properly or open fully or whatever can **** me off
2-bad ground somewhere
3-boost leak. never noticed it before b/c when it DID go into full boost it would cut
out.
4-injector clip connectors loose again from tugging on wires when splicing
5-dirty fuel filter-buying today
6-weak or shitty fuel pump-need to install my walbro
7-spark plugs-God knows what they look like or where they are from if there were
n/a injectors in there, I guess Ill buy those too. and ohm out my wires as well.
Im gonna guess 2,5 and/or 6 b/c it cruised and took off great and pulled better than before but when i start to get into boost it stumbles but then it would continue to stumble if it was a boost leak when I steadily made higher boost. Any other idea are greatly appretiated. The next time Ill get to work on it will have to be the weekend after next since i have to work.

Nobodys talked about it or anything. The weekly meets dont happen but sporadic gatherings occur at random times. I would like to come down to j-ville if erick will be there to throw on the new stuff. Anybody else down, speak up, but there will probably be a few pop-ins like there were last time that kinda turned into a meet.
