Alright guys I'm having some issues. I just installed a s/c kit on my car last Saturday. Well two days after I installed it I notices some idling issues. At first it was mainly from having the a/c on well now its gotten worse. Any time I went WOT that's when I noticed it. Pretty much like it triggers it to start idling funny. I can really notice it at night time because that's when the interior lights start flickering. Today is when i started to get more worried about it. I did send a data log to WOT-tuning so I'm hoping that will fix it. I did clean my throttle body really good. Looks brand new. I also checked for vacuum leaks but I can not find any. I have brand new plugs, 2 steps colder. I'm running a 2.8 pulley with the dual pass kit. Any ideas what my problem might be.

 

What injectors are you using? and is it a fine tuned tune yet?

 

I Have 60lb injectors and no it's not fine tuned yet. Still waiting on that. I have a base tune at the moment

 

Then dont worry about it. Base tune will have problems.

 

Alright will do. I'm hoping to get it retuned Monday from wot-tuning

 

Yup. We did the base tune on mine and it surged and drove awkwardly. Once I got the "updated" tune from them everything was cake. If its still doing it after teh new tune, then you might have an issue

 

You are just the guy I was looking for. You still in MB?

 

nah. Moved to Southern California last fall for a new job.

 

Oh ok sweet man. Still got the car?

 

Yup, still got the car... its been an expensive year. Complete transmission rebuild (added a diff at least), new axles, timing chain issues (broke all the guides somehow), steering rack issues. Shes making up for all the cheap years, haha

 

Geez sounds like it. I'm actually working on my motor build. Got it torn down mostly. Just gotta order the piston and rods. Already port and polished the head. Nothing too fancy. I'm sure a tranny will be in the near future lol

 

Yeaaa. At 173,000 my trans was coming apart. All new bearings, new syncros, a couple new gears (cause it was apart, why put worn parts back in) new shift cables, and a LSD. 4k till all was said and done, but its bulletproof now. Still need to get a new exhaust, my badmab header is cracking at all the welds -_-

 

Holy crap. lol well atleast its good to go. I just finished hooking up my dual pass kit. I did come across the valve cover breather smoking (not blue) and no smoke out the tail pipe. Any idea what this could be?

 

dunno. mine spits a little bit of junk into the catch can I have, always has.

 

Yeah I've been doing some research for the last hour, I think I just need a catch can. Ill prolly order 1 this weekend. Any recommendations on any particular one or are they about all the same?
