Yeah crazy, I think it has something to do with the wiring in the headlights.

It could have also been breaks dragging (I have seen that start fires before on plastic) not that you wouldnt notice your breaks starting a smoke show and screaching lol.

Looks like a headlight wiring issue for sure.

I doubt it, I didn't have my HIDs in. I took them out cause my high beams didn't work, they were sending me a new diode. so I put the stocks back in a while ago cause I got to much night highway driving to do.

You have much bigger issues than that!

It looks more like something broke when you got rear ended to me (fuel line or something)

Do you have the three bar sensors (gms1 sensors)
-try cleaning the sensor on the intake manifold. Check to make sure nothing is pinching the wires or that nothing is frayed. If its clean and it looks ok chances are the sensor is just going and needs replacement. This is a common issue for people running 21+psi on stock sensors. It seems to be luck of the draw.. But it could just be loose or the line could be really tight (under tension) all can cause issues.

Just patiently awaiting spring! This winter sucked so I don't even care about my sled haha. I ordered my flywheel the other day. Do a clutch swap probably in march and throw in Jordan's progress springs at the same time. By time i break my clutch in i hope the roads are dry and i can Bolt my TVS on. Nothing new with me. Just researching TVS stuff like mad. Exciting life I know haha.

Just thought I'd let you guys know I have an Autometer Cobalt 20psi boost gauge for sale. Nothing wrong with it, it just won't accommodate my TVS. I'm just changing the gauge so it will come with brand new line and hardware. I think me and mike are the only ones running SC's so all you turbo guys probably make more than 20psi but I thought I'd throw it up here anyways.
