Eh now I don't even know. I guess ill just buy a aeroforce gauge instead. I really need my SS to last me a long time. Can't buy another car and don't have to money to keep fixing turbo issues if they come up. Sucks not having the extra HP but I think after everything I've read its best to play it safe and not do anything

 

If you haven't installed the stage 1, skip it and hire Vince.

If you have the stage 1, hire Vince.

If you have problems after the stage 1, buy all new harness from crate engine depot, install the stock sensors and the harness back to stock, then give Vince a call.

Bottom line. Hire Vince.

 

18 pages and still no answers...man..I'm good

Anyhow, the car is going to another dealer on Monday morning. One of their "turbo techs" wants to take a ride in it to see what it's doing. Hopefully...this dealer will have some useful information.

 

That's the best news I heard this month, this guy will be "super" Mr. Goodwrench. What was needed all along, my dealer has a couple, but they need a push in the right direction. I was waiting to see what yours is doing.Good luck tomorrow, tell the guy we are all waiting with baited breath.

 

Dropped the car off...took a service tech on a ride. He said he definently feels and see's the surge (on the boost gauge).....

 

well damn bro...after 6 months and a couple grand later maybe they will finally fix the damn thing!!! good luck!!!!


oh...in for answers lol

 

This Tech is the one !!! he isn't blind & deaf !!

 

Just as I figured...idiots.

They told me that the Vacuum Chamber is causing the problem. I've had the vacuum chamber bypassed for about 2 months now. I hooked it back up the other day because I was going to take it in. Well...the other day...the car threw a code related to the bypass valve (a vacuum line came off of the vacumm chamber). So...They are probably seeing that stored code and thinking that the chamber is causing the problem. But the car runs exactly the same whether the chamber is hooked up or bypassed....

 

Got another call. The service writter said that one of their techs is going to take the car home and put it on "his" computer....(I'm thinking he has HP software) to see if he can see anything. I swear....this car is about to go bye bye...

 

So these idiots REALLY seem to think it's the vacuum tank.....and I know threre is NOWAY it can be the tank. I've had it bypassed for months. Before I took it to the dealer, I hooked it back up. I was out driving it...and it blew a vacuum hose off. So...it threw a BPV code. They plugged their scanner in it and immediatley saw the code...and now they are saying it's the tank...

The car ran the same whether the tank is bypassed or hooked up as well....
