What do you think the problem is? In why the car want start now?

Keep us posted and let us know what you figure out, Richard.
Haven’t got to drive the car with this wheel setup so couldn’t tell ya if I let it yet or not lol I got this setup sitting for a very long time so finally decided to put them on. Once these tires are gone I’m looking at a set of nittos not sure which one though..

For the car not be able to start, not really sure at this point. All I did swap out the turbo, added a AEM boost solenoid wired to the AEM 1101, wired in 5 new gauges (3 at the bottom 2 on the A pillar) and added a meth system which doesn’t have anything to do with the AEM. I’m thinking maybe when I was doing the wiring; I might have clipped, swapped or missed a wire or something of that nature. So tonight I’ll be double checking all that next to the AEM and go from there. Also didn’t help that the battery was dead?

Anybody have any suggestions? Car ran fine before the turbo blew the seals.

IS your fuel pump turning off when you turn the key ON or when you Crank it?

Is the aem connecting to the laptop?

Verdict..... Not enough juice in ther battery last night. Gave it a good charge over night and she fired right up! Lots of smoke again near the turbo but I think that's because of all the oil that was dripped on to the manifold and inside turbin housing when I took the turbo off. I hope?!?

Got one question tho.

In aem pro at idle the "air flow" is showing all red bars like its maxed out and the boost is showing 2 red bars? Is this normal at idle or is something wired wrong? When I unplug the ait sensor, idle fluctuates just a little and forgot to check if the red bars or gone?!?

Any ideas? Ill post a pic in the am to show you what I mean.

Got a couple questions though:

In aem pro at idle the "air flow" is showing all red bars like its maxed out and the boost is showing 2 red bars? Is this normal at idle or is something wired wrong? When I unplug the ait sensor, idle fluctuates just a little and forgot to check if the red bars or gone?!?

Also which setting should I be using for the aem boost soleniod when its hooked up to the aem?


Any ideas? Ill post a pic in the am to show you what I mean.

Quicksc4, do you have any input on the questions I posted above? Just wondering if I should be concerned or not.

Thanks!
