idle is good, non boost driving is a little rough yes; but may just be psychological.



whats my OMP?



O ring fix i used rad weld, basically! please disregard this though because a) it worked, i no longer have a leaky o-ring and b) it was doing the EXACT same thing before the o ring fix.

the boots for the magnecor are very tight and hard to position, make sure you have the boots all the way in.



i was tuning this weekend and my car was acting a little funny only to find out that one of the leading spark plug's boots was only halfway in

I think i may have found something...





Was looking at the throttle body earlier, and noticed that my two throttle arms dont seem be moving in union... if i pull the throttle cable (or get someone to press the gas) the arm moves, but the one behind it stays still. THis should move shouldnt it?



This kindof makes sense, as i would imagine this is what caused my boost pipe to pop off...



imagine this, all ports open on inlet, 10 psi of boost... 1 or two of them snap shut (how many does this secondary arm control?)



Boost goes through the roof and hose pops off. Lucky it wasnt my engine popping off! lol



or am i barking up the wrong tree?

your blow off valve should relieve the charge pipe pressure, if there is a drastic change in manifold pressure

are the arms supposed to move in union?
