I was going to do that. Problem is I have no way of getting it there. I need to have the boost lines with the controller setup in order to drive it there. Once I can drive I want to take it there and have them look over the whole car

I'm not really sure why you'd need a turbo timer hooked up or the boost controller to drive it there. It should run off wastegate pressure at a minimum and still run. Best bet is to call up erkel and see what he recommends for you to do

I don't really need the turbo timer connected but if someone was going to install the controller I want it all done. I dont see how I could drive it there with nothing connected. There are not boost lines connected at all. Wouldn't have vacuum leaks causing complete pressure lose? I'm not sure what's missing so I really want a once over on the car before its driven anywhere.

Sure it will have a vacuum leak but it will be fine to limp to espec where they can fix whatever issues you have and install whatever it is you need installed. I'm still not sure why you haven't called him yet?

OP, if you are willing to pay and are in Long Island I would make this a lot easier on yourself and ee if IveyTune in Linden, NJ is willing to help with what you need.

Espec has a flatbed tow truck. I've used them and have nothing but good things to say about my experience. Cost was less than expected and they fixed my issues and got me out fast.
