awesome. i thought i saw you yesterday but saw the new wheels and wasnt sure. looks hella nice cruising. i hope this snow quits sometime soon so that we can get some cool pics with the snow in the background. something like shots at the lake on the east side of ogden canyon or even parts of north ogden. scenery gets nice around here when it snows.

yea the gasket is the one where the header and the turbine housing meets, it looks like a t3 inlet flange but im not sure

What i know is we retuned it back to a stock tune that is slightly more aggressive. Your car doesnt build over 7psi last we checked due to a bad wastegate or a bad turbo.

Do you have a boost gauge? I know a bit about that car. It has a leak on the oil return line on the oil pan. Needs to be hela coiled.

I am in ogden i know some about that car. Its alot of noise and not a lot of go anymore.




I didnt do a thing, auction direct sells POS cars and everyone knows it. That car was a total peice but hey maybe it works good now? I dont know.

We never found out what injectors were on that car. They ARENT stock though.

Good thiing you got said manifold worked out cause that was a custom mani out of Southern Florida from a company no longer in business. I did some research a while ago on them and their manis. Not a bad product but that thing for sure has been rewelded.

The rotor on the passenger side needs to be replaced. Wes may have a set you can pick up for cheap.

Feel free to text me. 801-648-6011.

Oh and that fuel pump might be going as well.

Names Jaremy.
okay so wesside would you be willing to inform me of the mods that are done either on the thread or text me at 8019208152 names matt thanx.

is there a way to test wastegates to see if that is it or do i need to get another and slap it on to find out?

i do have a boost guage along with a a/f ratio guage and oil pressure guage but none of them are currently hooked up as i dont know how to do it.

im going to check for a boost leak tonight to see if that is it also what is "hela coiled"?

is the walbro 255lhp the choice fuel pump to go with?

I don't think it was even hitting wastegate boost unless spring is really only 7psi spring. My guess on that cars boost issue was either wastegate/wastegate spring
I think you should do a compression test on the motor amognst a few things. I put new plugs in the car and a close to stock safe tune on it. I do have some rotors so you can fix your rotor problem.

I want to do an electric go kart, enduro (lay down) style you could put the batteries in the outside pods, where the fuel tanks go. Imagine 300hp + and less than 1000lbs... that would be fun!


P.S. I love the sig! your parts will be ready today!
