So last night, i went to the racetrack again. 1/8 mile this time. Blah blah blah long story short after my run when i went to push on the breaks, they were stiff as hell. My car started idling at 2-2.5k RPM's. I turned the car off immediately, got out, checked the engine bay, didnt see anything crazy.
Started it back up, and same shit. High idle, Stiff breaks, and i could hear an intense flutter coming out of the intake.
I had to drive home, and the entire way it would idle up and down up and down. It would hold boost just fine, but my boost gauge wasnt moving.
Anybody have any ideas?
I was thinking maybe like master brake cyl cause of the vac lines and shit. I'm stumped.

Ha. Whaddaya know. Popped the intake off, pulled out the battery, and there right in front of my face! Two hoses, disconnected from eachother. I electricaltaped/ziptied the shit out of those bitches.

Marks back up and running!
WOO HOO glad to hear its not an expensive fix......what hoses were they by chance??
I popped mine line off the brake booster at about 130-140ish, on a limited stretch of road. Thank god I have really strong legs, I manual stopped it, and heard the ABS kicking in. Almost died that night.
Moral of the story, Zip ties are your friend.

I BLEW MINE DOING 200MPH ON A 1000 SHOT OF NOS WHILE MY SUPERCHARGER WAS AT FULL POWER AND MY TURBO WAS BOOSTING 50PSI. O YEAH AND MY ROCKET BOOSTERS WERE ON TOO. I WOULD HAVE HIT THE WALL BUT I JUST TOOK OFF AND FLEW AWAY....

You were doing 200 with a 1000 shot, SC, Turbo and Rockets?
