(This isn't about a Z but I thought I could get some help here from you FI guru's. Anyone know why today when I went to walmart in my truck I was getting no boost? I went to floor it on the interstate to catch up to a viper that was riding my *** and then blew around me and I had no oomph. Never had that happen before..truck drives fine no pinging or wierd idles but for some reason not boosting up.

 

Does it only happen when your going to Walmart?

 

ROFL

What are you doing racing a viper in your truck....get your Z and try again.

 

his truck is a TT LS1 i believe. Did ur intercooler pipe fall off:-D

 

Yea its a TT LS1 SS Silverado so I was hoping I had a shop at that Viper until that happened but still having the problem, everything looks normal. :| I guess thats another hint for me to sell the damn thing and get closer to getting my car.

 

been in the shop most all week and they told me today that somehow something blew a hole through the bottom of one of my turbo's, but they said that wouldn't neccesarily make me lose all of my boost, I told'm to just take everything off and return it to stock as best they can so I can just get rid of the truck and salvage whats left of the kit and sell it to someone local.

 

blowing a hole in a turbo sounds kind bad to me, lol.

 

Uhh, yea...and thats another thing that has us flaborgasted(sp) because there is no evidence of any missing bolts or anything coming loose but the hole is blown inward like it was hit. A rock couldn't have gone through my grill and hit it on a dirt road when going home could it? Even though I don't think a rock would be able to hit that hard even from a vehicle infront of me.

 

You have a hole in your impeller housing/around your inducer? Sounds like install error more than freak of nature. With an LS1 you can't be running that much boost(because of the CFM of the NA motor) so the housing isn't at any risk of collapsing. I've only seen one impeller collapse a housing and it was machined over and it was waaaay too big for the housing.
