Well I went out for a night of crusing tonight and everything seemed fine. Even beat an S2000 from a roll finally got the whole brake boosting thing down:). Well all night the car ran great, nice cold weather and not much knock but then on my easy drive home the "Check engine" light came on. But then when I gave it a little it went off. I was running a tank of 91 with 2 gallons of 100 unleaded. So that shouldn't have done it. Well any help would be great as I am new to this whole turbo thing.
Thanks

Change out your 02 if in doubt. My car was using a lot of fuel and the exhaust had a "fumey" smell to it...after I changed the sensor with a GM purple wire...the car starts/idles smoother, the fumes are down and the partial/WOT and WOT are better/smoother and slightly improved. I've owned my TTA for 4 months now and have changed out the plugs, O2, PCV, Tranny flushed, K/N Breather cap installed. Next on the agenda are a new set of wires (will box up my originals with 24,000 miles on them).

Good luck.
 
Nope, we took care of it, his fuel pressure was too low. Just a newbee tuning issue :)
 
yep

thanks Rick Cars running sweet now right after I left I beat up on a 6 speed LS1 from a roll. :cool:
