hey guys and gals.. I was wondering what could possible be wrong with my car. It does not sound right and is not making power as it should. It sounds like a WRX at all throttle positions and rpm.. i want to get this sorted out before i head to Sean Ivey in a Few weeks for a tune..thanks for any suggestions to check and consider. Im thinking possible bad coil.. maybe a shot injector? timing off? plugs?

 

Maybe you blew a IC hose off, check the upper pipe to the TB.

 

If he blew a hose off his car it probably wouldn't run. If it sounds like a Subie you may have a problem in the fuel system like you said.

 

Is that right...Mine ran with a blown hose just did not run good (sounded subie ish).

 

not a hose lol...

 

throw any codes? id start with pullin out your plugs and seing how they look

 

Fuel or ignition issue. Start with the basics, just as you listed. Plugs, wires, coils, injectors, blah blah blah.

 

yea im going to start with simple things and work my way up.. it just doesnt seem to pull like it should.. it made 545whp on dynoflash's dynojet and doesn't seem like it at all right now.. that was about a month ago.

 

judging by ur mod list u could have many problems however def pull ur plugs and see how ur car is running.

 

Blown gasket or a loose nut in your exhaust manifold/downpipe or catback area. Mines did this when one of my nuts was loose and it was leaking.

 

Couldn't help but laugh at that

 

Check the torque on the exhaust man. nuts

 

+1 I could not help but laugh when I read that.

Raist

 

Ha Ha! Very funny guys. You know what I mean.

 

On the wires that connect to the injectors on my 03 evo, one of them just broke, i dont know how but it did and when i started it one day it was sounding like a wrx, but that is just my 2 cents.
