Talking I-r-Now boosted...In my 240

Well as some of you may know my Ka dropped a valve on my about a month ago after a night of some sidewayz and abusive fun. So instead of putting money into another Ka, which my bank account would have been much more happy, i bought and SR and had it install at Tiger racing in Norcross,GA.


Specs:
Black Top SR w/ 60k miles
Megan racing down pipe
Megan racing test pipe...not installed
Old style JDM HKS Bov( leaking air ATM)
walbro 255 fuel pump
Greddy FMIC
Trust Power Extreme II catback
Stri racing X-line boost gauge...not installed
??? stage 3 clutch and light flywheel
needs Z32 filter adapter and Intake filter

she is running stock boost, which i believe is 7psi. ill know for sure once i get my boost gauge in.

Atm moment im having same exhaust leak problem i had before b/c the stock cat doesnt line up with after market parts, so i hope to fix that once i get up to ohio and install my test pipe. And the Hks bov is odl and the spring is soft, so its leaking air out at idle, sometimes making her stall but mostly just a rought idle. So i hope to fix that with newer HKS or get AFC super or Neo.

But when moving she is running really strong and pulls hard. I cant beat on it to much b/c i have to break in the clutch. Ill update the parts list once i get my full receipt.

Hope to have some pics up l8tr as i no longer own a camera atm and im moving into a dorm so I-r-also very broke.


But im happy.....i have like 400 bucks to my name......well l8tr folks..

is ur bov recirculated back into the intake pipe (pre turbo), if not, then thats whats causing the rough idle and occasional stalling. the reason this happens is cause the SR runs off a MAF, not a MAP. also if this is the case, the any kind of electronics wont fix this unless u convert over to a MAP (its cheaper to recirculte the bov).

Yes, just recirculate the bov. Everything will improve, gas mileage, and drivability most though.
