car ran okay before putting the turbo on yes?

As far as I am aware. This is a BP I got from Jho... 3 years ago? It sat in my driveway for 2 winters, then in my garage last winter/summer while I collected parts and such. Jho said it came out of his Moms car I think, and had 100k on it.

[FE3-323]

hopefully you prepped the cylinder walls & kept it properly covered

edit: kindness to the BP

[Pox]

Well, not necessarily well kept. Motor still had oil in it, and turned over easy. Was covered with a run of the mill tarp. Thats one of the reasons I plan to run a bunch of seafoam through it. Try to get all the crud out.

Jeff has a blown vj20 layin around not sure if he'll part with it but hit him up!

Is it just the housing that's cracked? I jhave 2 vj11 housings fs. They have a diferent outlet but all the mouting is the same. Let me know if you want 1. 1 is stock Þhe other is pc'd blue.

What will using the vj11 housing do? Will it effect anything? Like a hybrid type set up?

[Turpro]

I don't think there's any a/r difference in the vj11 and vj20. It would only fix yÓur problem

chris, the last thing this guy needs is false hope.... i believe the CHRA from the VJ11 & VJ20 are different. has anyone ACTUALLY bolted a vj11 housing onto a vj20. if memory serves right it doesn't fit.

[Turpro]

I sold a vj11 center section and the guy bolted his vj20 housings and all to it with no problem so I don't see why it wouldn't work

Still cant seem to get the car running right. I have not seafoamed it yet. Double checked all my wiring and grounds. Car is N/A at the moment. I simply disconnected some intercooler pipes and connected the VAF to the intake. Wont stay running very long. Still dies if you stab the throttle. Sounds like its starting to mis-fire or something.

I dunno. =\

[Turpro]

So you basically have it in n/a form correct? What vaf,ecu and injectors are in it right now?

[CaymenEGT91]

thats the problem right there... GTX injectors, BP26 and Bcode vaf dont like running N/A

[Pox]

LOL. Damn. haha, Well looks like Ill be cashing my check and grabbing a cold housing so I can connect everything.

The car will start and run, it starts hard, like.. surges revs to about 2k and back down to 1k about 4-5 times, then will run around 2-2.5k for a bit, then start studdering back down to 1k then sometimes die, or go back to 2-2.5k. Will continue for about 2 minutes then die. VAF has to be held open with a screw driver, or else it will turn over, catch, then instantly die.

Also, my wideband doesnt read anything but 19.9. Stupid Glowshift brand. I think its because my exhaust is in peices, literaly. Only piece thats fixed on it the downpipe off the turbo. I need some clamps, or a welder...
