Default Turbonetics Over boost mod --Just installed

Well --I just installed the T/Ns Mod kit --It was a ***** ---Not hard --just have to pretty much take everything apart and start over Turbo comes out as does the the cross over and most the other pipeing---I found thats its a good Idea to run a tap in there tapped holes cuz there a tad bit tite at the bottoms and as to the fact that so much is so hard to get too --no use fightin them---Fits were nice as far as the pipes---But BOTTOM line -- It sh*ts and gits---seems to have solved the prob---But this is a 5 hr Job to do it right and clean---I had no help so it took me like 8 hrs---Got questions just yank my chain

Just not sure --It was a rush job for a Bud ---Im thinking maybe --Delayed signal? Wish I had -had more time to study it ---I just hit it hard and got it done cuz it really was a time consumin deal+ I had to fix the A/C cuz the wire to the clutch got burned due to not reroutin it -and also A/F Gage install. Did it in two days alone with no extra hands and phone ringin off the hook-But it was a well designed deal and went well. But all I know is --I got it installed and redlined through the gears with no hassles---Hes runnin the Cat drop system and single 3" exhaust. Origially Dynoed at 377 HP with stock exhaust

Good to hear it's working. I have mine sitting around, but I was able to fix any boost issues with a lighter wastegate spring and electronic boost controller. I think I'll hold off to install the fix.

it'd have to be after the MAF though for the car to die like that.

I've had IC pipes pop off wti the TN kit and it runs fine because it's not losing any metered air.

Sounds like maybe there's a wire loose somewhere that gets jolted.
