Fuse fixed the problem. Car is up and running. Only thing is the bov flutters when I let off the gas, and it makes a loud paPSH when i shift, i'll be on it about 4.5k tho when it does.. Need a tune baddd. It's running horrible right now I can feel it. Feels slower than normal.

You've cleaned the bov, right? Literally taken it off, apart, and cleaned it?

It sounds like your BOV needs to be adjusted cause it's venting while under boost. Also, didn't you isntall a boost controller? If you did, get a boost gauge and see what boost you're running. You might be running lower than stock boost.

I agree. Mine did that. It was set to too soft a setting and I had to tighten it down AND clean it. It was so corroded that the piston was actually sticking. It's supposed to be completely smooth. Take it apart, give it a good cleaning with a green scrubby pad and some cleaner. I even hit might up with a very fine sand paper to take out the blemishes on the piston. Put some white silicone grease on WD-40 on the piston when you're done, then tighten it down as needed. I found it helps to mark your sweet spot with a black permenant marker so every time I clean mine I know exactly where it gets adjusted to without having to fiddle with it all over again.

I just bought the BOV new. It's not the BOV. Could be the boost controller though.. I set it all the way counter clockwise.. maybe a turn clockwise would be better.. I need to get a tune Jason! PM me and see if we can work something out! I'll drive down there if I have to.

Dube... you are welcome to come down whenever you can. This weekend may be a little shot as we are finishing my car this weekend, cleaning the new shop and my sons birthday is sunday. I think we would be free Monday though if we aren't still wrapping my car up. Id imagine either Matt or I would be free though. Try setting your boost to about 23 psi though. You have a baseflash in the car, it probably feels that way simply because you are running wastegate pressure. You may also have a boost leak... id find a leak tester and see if you can get some help and get it done. Youd be amazed at what you will find.

If you're bov is opening up during throttle, your bov needs to be adjusted. Also buy a boost gauge if you haven't.

I don't think its a boost leak, just the boost controller might be set to min boost. I turned it about a half to one cycle so it should be good now. My check engine light didn't come on.. Shouldn't it?

Gary, you can have the v7 tephra rom patch put on the car. Since v7 now has a setting for an alternate injector scaling, you can just switch between a pump gas map and an e85 map by holding the IC Sprayer switch down for xx seconds, that's assuming you still have the IC sprayer hooked up.

So emery and i came up with a decent list for my deployment build.

FP red turbo
Kelford 272 Camshafts
Supertech Dual Spring
Buschur Street FMIC (painted black if possible)
STM UICP
AMS LICP
Tial Q BOV
FIC 1150's
walbro 255
megan racing O2 housing
Buschur heat shield
koyo radiator
AEM Black adjustable cam gears
Shorty antenna
valve cover bolt kit
AEM digital boost gauge
AEM digital oil press gauge
AEM digital wideband o2 gauge
Triple Gauge Lower Console Pod
Rotorpros (slotted only)l
Megan Racing Oil Catchcan
Powder Coat wheels/valve cover/calipers all black

It's alrdy a 2.3 stroker.
It's going to remain a 93 octane pump gas Evo.
Should be looking at 425-475 awhp with this build.
