Didn't take too long. It took about as long to raise the car, change the oil and put it back on the ground as it did to do all the line hook ups and re-assembly. Took it for a spin, tweaked the WGA seems to run fine. Feels slow though...

took it down tucsons mini highway, and did a 4th gear pull from 55 to ... well, im not gonna say. got some funny boost readings 17, 15, then 12, kinda hopped around. did a 3rd gear pull and got some better boost readings. the car was only holding 13.5 and spiking 18.5 with just under 11 on the wideband. so I've still got some room to play with it!

as for the E 2, im undecided if Im gonna keep it. probably gonna rebuild it and sell it for 650 (still not a bad price, since it will be rebuilt correctly this time)
and spend the money on the wot box and boost box. or I will just buy a dsp from agp and get unlimited tunes!

DSP would be your best bet

Right on, glad you got everything working again. Does it feel faster than the E2 like you were thinking it might?

Either your boost gauge is wrong or you have boost leaks. It should peak and then fall to the hold value. It shouldn't go up and down during a pull. I guess you could have fueling or spark issues too.

yeah, Im thinking my boost gauge/controller might not be working or hooked up correctly because i get funny boost readings like that. 3rd gear wasnt giving me any issues though. spike 18, holding 13-14, then drops off to 11-12.
I probably have some fuel issues though. idk, ever since I've had the car I've never completely solved my boost issues though. Hopefully a DSP from AGP would solve that problem.



the car doesnt feel any faster than it was before, but it definitely is spooling up alot faster. I know the E2 wasnt working correctly because I wouldnt see full boost till 3400 rpm. this turbo I see full boost at 2800!
