Hi Guys. I'm pretty new to the forum, so thanks in advance for your help. I have a 2010 SS turbo, it currently has 26,000 miles on it. The only thing aftermarket on it (from what I know...I bought it used.) is a haun intake.

When I start it in the mornings it idles rough and smells awful from the exhaust (like it's running rich.) I let it warm up and then I take it out. I don't dog it at all, but it is running super rough. It won't boost past 2-3 psi either. It's also thrown a code, usually P0101. I've replaced the MAF and cleaned the K&N filter. CEL goes off after 2-3 restarts.

I've read multiple threads with little or no conclusion on what this could be. I was thinking a bad MAP or intercooler? Please help. This is my only car right now and I drive 2 hours daily. With no turbo it sucks.

Thanks guys.

Boost leak

That's what I was thinking. Should I just start by looking for loose hoses?

May as well, it can't hurt. If nothing's obvious make a tester. There's a how-to on here.

Will Do. I saw the how-to. Thanks for the advice guys. So, is the leak test a better way to start than checking my MAP?

Thanks again.

I just tightened all of the clamps on the intake and around the intercooler. Nearly all of them were loose. It's running like a dream. I'm shocked at how much quicker it is. I hope it lasts. Thanks guys!
