Problem #1,
So last week, i put a bunch of stuff on the car:
60# injectors, TA49 (rebuilt turbo, but 0 miles on pte rebuild), TA Downpipe
Turbo oil feed line, Related turbo gaskets (oil drain, inlet bell, manifold)
o2 sensor, 160 TSTAT, spark plugs, RJC PP
RJC boost controller, Tbody gasket, Vacuum block gasket
tt chip, oil change, coolant change, Cleaned intercooler
i think that is all.....
All parts were new aside from the turbo.
Car also has a walbro fuel pump, hotwiring, adj FP regulator, lt1 maf,
old maf translator believe it's v1.1, razors alky, alky was set to 4
running a TT 5.6 alky chip that's for more boost than i need
(dont know what i was thinkng but had him burn it for 25psi)
Have had 0 problems with this car since i had it,
so im pretty sure it has something to do with last weeks mods.
Had been driving it around the past few days, not going on the highway,
but had gotten a few opportunities to lay into the boost, hitting around 17# give or take,
was getting no knock, nothing out of ordinary, car felt fine.
SM#s looked fine.
INT/BLM was a little rich, 118ish, but otherwise decent numbers.
I am so lucky and happy i avoided an accident through this,
on the otherhand, something is deff broken.
Here is what happened and the best i can describe before/during/after
I went on the highway today for the first time with new parts....
Not going too fast, maybe 45-50.
Some ******* in front of me is pulling into my lane without looking,
it's clear to my left, so i get on the throttle to change lanes,
boost comes up, i don't even think i was more than maybe 10#.
I hear POP, then the car stalls.
It sounded like a "pop" not a "bang" if that makes sense to you.
Pull over, car restarts no problem.
Not throwing any codes.
I was able to drive home, but it feels like if it's given ANYTHING MORE
than the minimal amount of pressure on the gas pedal that the car needs to move,
it wants to, and will stall.
Like going up a steep hill, it can only do it at turtle speed,
if you try to give it more gas, it will stumble.
Nothing under the hood looks obvious.
Any ideas?
