IC Installed still having trouble though...
Sup fellas,
I just got my IC installed and it looks great! I dont have any pics of it Pre-install but I'll take some and post them on my page when I overhaul it in a couple of weeks! All I can say is...the car feels "SICK" now! You can feel the pull alot more in the low-end! Unfortunately, as some of you might recall, I'm still having the put-put trouble! I'm not getting enough fuel apparently. I've had a couple of shops take a look at it noting the different bits of advice you guys gave me in here as to what the problem might be and I think its now safe to assume that its a fuel problem. So...I'm getting a fuel-pressure regulator and an HKS BOV along w/some fine tuning to get this thing straight! NYC its just about offcial!!! I cant wait to get it done!

No blown trannys.
Jayson is a good testament of what would happen if you're not careful (I'm sure he was, but it still happens).
I found the thread in my first attempt... I'll provide you with the partial link:

Well the power is there but the boost gauge is still off. I am getting new gauges and will hopefully find the issue behind my boost issue.

Yeah I don't think its a boost leak, b/c I would not be pushing the dyno #'s I have. Maybe the wiring could have be wrong it was installed by a shop?

maybe, but you might also want to consider that the senser in the gauge could just be bad.
