i'd reccommend this kit but it'll kill a stock engine quick. buy this kit and order a wg spring for low boost and you'll be boosted and ready at a moments notice to turn up the boost once you get yourself a set of forged internals.

Well i pulled the spark plugs out today and this is what I found...

Looks like i'll be getting some new plugs. What would you 2.2 guys recommend? 2 step colder or is one step good enough?

Well it didn't backfire this time lol. I wonder if it could have been cuz i had a low tank tho. I drove it to get gas after i updated the tune and it was doing the same thing but then when i put half a tank in it stopped doing it... I sent Vince a log so hopefully it looks good cuz it pulls so much more than 8 psi lol. I'm gonna need new tires very soon

So I think I figured it out. My map sensor didn't fit my 2.4 mani so I had to make the hole bigger. It came out and the car was idling at 1400 and vacuum was at 10 instead of the usual 20. Guess I'm gonna have to take the manifold off and make the map sensor fit better...


Quick Reply: wanna build my 2.2 up for more boost!
