umm holy ****.. how much boost were you running?
did you finish getting it tuned.. or did you start beating on it right away..
also did you do a compression test BEFORE you did all this? ( weren't you the one that was running nitrous before?)
that sucks man .. i hope that isnt the case

it was tuned. with a rough tune. and you know you shouldnt have been beating on it like you did. I doubt you have wrx mod, ur **** sounds like a srt4 or wrx anyways with the turbo on it. Its probably something simple and your just freaking ur self out again just like you did with the head gasket.

Honestly, like 07cobaltguy...my car ALREADY sounds like SRT or WRX
so i couldn't tell a differance. but my downpipe is getting made as i type this, or it may be dne who knows..but after that
bringing it out to my aunts checking my plugs..first. :/
jst stay out of boost at all costs...would be my suggestion sentry
i dnt have a funny idle, 800 or so RPMS
at about 1/4to1/2 throttle at about 4K rpms it studdeders, i checked my piping and it was all on, because im still making boost
so idk..hoping its not the WRX mod.. :/
