I recently just installed my turbo kit and i started up the car to see if the car ran fine and it does not. The revs bounce up and down. I have hondata with datalogger, rc 550s, basic kit, stock fuel pressure. Could the car be that badly tuned that it will not run right or could it be a vacuum leak from the wastegate or BOV?

Mine did the same thing, pretyy much same set-up, mine was a stupid vaccum leak

i have the map sensor t-ed off for the blow off valve could that be the reason? I checked all the vacuum lines and they seem fine.

hopefully that will do the trick. Im thinking its running so rich that the spark plugs are fowling out. Because i was told the idle is so bad, that a vacuum leak couldn't make it that bad.

edit: I remembered that when i first started it up, it ran fine just really dark n smokey. I shut it off then turned it on about 1 min later and it ran bad.
