oh it runs just fine i drive it everyday to school and back. it just dont go over 3k rpm ill post pics tomorrow of how i went along mounting it, i got never ending codes. its crazy but there coming off my pr4 ecu. ill hook up the si ecu to see the codes. how do you really read the codes. i think i know how but i want to make sure. and ill look in the FAQ i think there is a post in there that shows what the codes mean.

the pr4 is prob throwing an egr valve code.

but ya read it like this


one long flash=10 so example 3 long flashes will be 30

short flashes count as one example 4 short flashes 4

so
long,long,short=21

ya understand ?
