So im driving home from work tonight when all of a sudden my engine light comes on. Had turbo Professionally installed and tuned By very reputable shop. Car has been running great for a week now. And even after the engine light came on no strange noise and no difference in how car drove. Anyone got any suggestions?

I have been FI for over 55,000 miles and never got one code with the exception of my 2 fuking tb's that failed.

Must be the famous Random misfire code

That would be my guess

if you run a cold enough spark plug (cause you run high boost stuff), that alone can trigger a code cause they don't get to "operating temp" quite as fast.

I bet on random misfire...mine used to go about 3-500 miles before one ticked. have not got one with the haltech yet but that could be because of the haltech controlling everything.



I'll put 50 on randomm misfire- no specific cylinder

having had the turbo professionally installed by a reputable shop, you should not be getting an engine light. Something is wrong and you need to have the car towed back to the shop and have them do a thorough diagnostic check on the car. engine lights don't come show up for no reason and it should be very concerning for you.

If you have a UTEC, you will throw a code, everyone I know with a UTEC is coded! I'm used to it now.

I was just giving you a hard time... your car is going to throw codes. You aren't driving a high end machine that is perfectly tuned and factory tested.

You are driving a middle of the road sports car that you converted to FI...something the engineers of the car never intended. Obviously a engine light or two is going to pop up.

IMHO do some more research and know what to expect from your car
