I let my buddy drive my balt to my house. So this little pos leggy ricer fly bys us. Next thing I know, were blowing past him, and I hear the rev limiter 3 times, and the tach hits 0 but the car is still on... none of the gears would catch, and if they did, when we shifted, it'd not catch again. We pull over and let the car sit, of course it instantly cuts off. Tried restarting it once, rpms bounce and cut off. Waited for 5my minutes, turn the car on, and its running fine. Buy now i'm hearing a whistling sound over 4k rpm at WOT. Wtf happened? Is something broken?

 

the homies jaw should b broken.

 

Haha I can't believe your friend would do that, unless this is all a lie just cause your embarrassed about pegging the limiter so badly, but uh, what kind of balt do you have, and is the limit stock or raised?

 

Its ok, hell pay for anything that did break. He hit a piece of metal In the road and got me a new tire, instead of a patch. I have a 06 ss sc. Only mod is intake.

 

thats why you dont let friends drive your car. especially if they dont know how to drive stick.

 

or if they dont have respect for other pplz **** =p

 

****, I hit the limiter here and there. Not used to it being so low. Mu old tiburon tached around 7500

 

Oh really? What was done to it? I used to have one, I loved the looked but holy god they were slow

 

Intake, exhaust, header, tune, hids, basic stuff. Still slower then hell.

 

Im just hoping nothing broke. Although we did take it on an aggressive run up skyline drive afterward. All seemed fine.fine

 

i cant see anything going wrong after bouncing off the lmiter 3 times when your 100% stock. there must of been an on-going problem that was never taken care of and doing this pushed it "over the edge." our slow moving tachs dont help none.

 

On my way to work, good old CEL. Still running fine though.

 

Great, now you know what the problem is. Read the code.

 

Yeah, I learned this lesson after my best friend almost launched my car over a traffic median. Doesn't stop her from asking to drive it every damn time we go anywhere.

 

i bounce the rev limiter ALL the time never had a problem
friends do **** **** up though on the regular
sounds like that whistling at 4k at WOT might just be your supercharger lol!

 

Could be an intake leak. I'd check your intake for leaks as they would cause whistling, CELs and erratic fueling/corrections (bouncing idle).

 

CEL code p0420. It seems like the car is down even more horsepower then it was. Plus my boost gauge goes to 12work instead of 10. Sounds likebmy bypass is staying open.

 

soudns like your cat took a ****..
now you have an intake and aftermarket dp to buy lol

 

this. its probably plugged and f-ed up

header and DP is your next buy!

 

Sounds like a plan. I was planning on getting a header anyway. I smell a full exhaust setup in my near future. Smells like sliced dolphin. Forgot to mention, it's Bank 1
