okay here's the problem. it's my 99si....grrr... when i'm driving with about 5-20% throttle, the car starts to putter on all gears in between 3000-5000rpms and the needle jumps. then the trippy thing is, sometimes a big *** fire ball pops out as soon as i let off and get on the throttle again. along with it is also smoke. so i look at the egt, it's normal. a/f, it's normal. boost gauge, normal no crazy *** spiking. so wtf!! i check the spark plugs, hella black. so i got myself a new set, still same thing. then i check the friggin snail, oil is starting to come out the intake side.....car has been tuned (a/f 11:5) . i've been running on this tune now for about 2mths and everything has been right since yesterday. here's the setup.

t3/to4x
wastegate set 6.5lbs
440s
vafcII
rising rate fpr
fuel pump
stock internals except sprockets

could it be the injectors? i've had a problem with my efb16 and it was the ignitor wires all coroded. could it be that? please give me an honest input.........thanks

someone please reply.... doesn't have to be a rocket science answer.. anyone have ideas?!

 

Get it tuned with a EMS.

 

if the tach is jumping around its most likely a distributor problem....bad ignitor

someone please

 

its not the injectors... itsthat damn fmu you are running. its causing you to run pig rich out of and in boost. ditch the fmu and get real fuel management

and congrats your turbo is now **** itself... the compressor side seals are fucked... im betting because its a t04x that its an ssac turbo beacuse only they sell that ****.... figures
