Well I did a little tinkering on the car on Tuesday and saw that one of my couplers was kind of lose. I pulled out the battery and re-adjusted the charge piping and re-tightened the clamps on the coupler. Put the battery back in fired it up and the check engine light was gone car idled good so I took her for a spin. All I have to say is GOD DAMN!!!! it was like a whole new beast car pulled harder than it ever had. Drove it around for about an hour and decided to take it to work the next day.

Now the bad news so I drove the car to work yesterday (wednesday) and low and behold it's freaking out again WTF!!! so it has to be something else. I don't understand though the car runs so strong like I said stronger than it ever has. Yet it still like surges or whatever. The RPM's don't move just the boost gauge needle. But I can feel the car moving like I'm stepping on and off the gas quickly. If I step on the gas when it's freaking out it stops I can boost the shit out of the car and it pulls like hell with no stuttering or lagging yet when cruising it will freak out My friend Marvin and I are gonna try to figure it out today. It has to be either boost leak something to do with fuel (maybe an injector) the MAF or ECU. I don't think it's Vacuum because the boost gauge still reads 20HG of Vacuum at idle like always. IDK it's pissing me off though.
