Default installed greddy turbo kit(eng light)

well i finaly installed the kit. i started it up and it ran fine for a little and then started bogging down eng light came on. i tryed doing flash code but it only flashed once a couple of time. the manual said 1 was prim o2 sensor but the sensor is fairly new. does the computer need time to adjust? oh yeah, with 7psi how far do i retard the timing? and yes i have the emanage not the blue box

Could be the secondary O2, I know that gives you a CEL. However, it doesnt affect the way the car runs, so that wouldnt explain the bogging. I would go and recheck your Emanage wiring to make sure all the connections are correct and complete.

Yes it would.. The car will run really rich with the o2 sensor not working because its using the backup processor and running in limp mode.

To retard the timing turn the distributor, or I believe you can adjust it with the emanage. If you had the ask how to do it, you probably shouldn't be doing it yourself.

How did you check the CEL light? Did you jump the connector by the glove box? Or did you just turn the key to 'on' and watch it flash once.

Sorry. I miss read it.

I'd retard 2-3 degrees at the distrubtor, if you don't have any other way to retard it. If you do 1psi per pound is boost is very conservative.
