ORIGINAL POST: Hey everybody quick intro to my situation ... been a long time since my last post. My build had to become the last priority.. Married life. Anyhow, everything is finished and the car has been running. All of a sudden it started running like crap, felt like it was losing power/misfiring. O2 milivolts flying from 750, 780, 800, 450, 47, 580, 740, etc. I'm installing the walbro fuel pump and hot wire kit this weekend. I also bought a new cam sensor and cam tool... The guy that was helping me build the motor had snapped the wheel off of the cam sensor and had the bolt machined back on to hold it in place. I'm guessing he installed it without the proper instructions?? I'm going to change the IAC valve as well then reset it with the new TPS I put in. My speedometer/rpm is not working, but scanmaster at WOT showed maxing 2300 rpm... Crazy.
Currently
Ta49 turbo, turbonetics external waste gate, 38lb Lucas D1163AA 621030 fuel injectors, accufab adjustable fuel pressure regulator, lt1 3" maf sensor, 3" maf pipe, new O2 sensor, new radiator, new ignition control module and coil pack from Kirban Performance.. (The ignition control module was MELTED.. I noticed it when I was going to change only the coil pack). The guy that was helping me had the boost gauge hose hooked up to he throttle body.. See attached picture. I just noticed that as I followed it back. Obviously boost gauge isn't reading anything. What hooks up there???
