then tuesday she is going into the dealership.

well went to the stealership, they said there was nothing wrong, i took the tech for a drive afterwards and the problem was still there, he said to pull around backa nd he will take a look again. i dropped him off in front and said dont bother.

its not a cannon exhaust, it tucks up like the stock exhaust, its an actual muffler with a 3.5" tip on it.
and i went to the dealership to have them find out what is wrong with my car, afer only charging me a half hour's labor they couldn't find anything wrong with the vacume hoses, intake ducting, codes or anthing.
monday im swaping out the temp sensor and the map sensor before i get my cat-back put on.

I was only playing with you

also, you mean MAF not MAP

no i ment map, i already swapped out the maf to no avail.
anyways, got the catback put on this morning, power is great when my car runs right. sounds absolutly AMAZING, i love the sound perfectally tame at idle/cruse, but when you stomp it it is awsome, best $150 ive spent on any exhaust system ive bought. plus the 40 to have it made to fit my car.

I guess I still dont understand why you have a map instead of a maf but ok. I'm glad ithe exhaust sounds good.

He has both. The MAP is the pressure sensor next to the boost control solenoid and I'm sure you know what the MAF is.

Uhh....legacy turbos have both, do they not? MAF(mass air flow) MAP (manifold atmospheric pressure)???? Im guessing

MAP = Manifold Absolute Pressure.
Boost + Atmospheric = Absolute Pressure. 16psi + 14.7psi = 30.7psi Absolute Pressure.

well took out my O2 sensor tonight and hooked up a vacume gauge, well the needle was bounding all over the place, so looks like im going to have a full TBE in 3inches in a few days when i go buy a bell mouth down pipe to replace the stock one. that should fix my problem.
oh and checked my plugs today and found one of then loose, that was intresting.
