QUOTE (lagos @ Sep 2, 2009 - 6:35 PM) RTV on the wastegate flange...really? Really really. Your eyes did not decieve you. It works, and we didnt have any extra gaskets at that point in time. Brent is going to be making a new elbow here shortly anyway. That one is just temporary. Once the new one goes on, we will have new gaskets by then. -------------------- www.tweakdperformance.com contact@tweakdperformance.com |

CELICA IS UP AND RUNNING GREAT!!! today it finally happend lol. Cam and i worked on it the other day and we had no thottle at all and was running crappy. so i ordered to plugs cause mine were shot. got them in a few days ago and today my friend Joey and I worked on it for a little bit. i changed the plugs and it started up fine but the idle was sh!tty still. and i had little vaccum. I took it down the road with joey in the passenger side and when i got to the turn around point the car shut down once i pressed in the clutch. started it barely cause the battery was dieing. gave it gas and nothin happend. so we had Heather drive down with my other set of plugs. changed them out jumped the battery and drove back to my house. from there i was dicking around with the SAFC and joey and i say the option sensor. now with my engine throwing a MAP sensor code i figured id check it out. clicked it and my RPMs shot up to 4 grand. we got out and loosed the throttle cable because someone tightened it way to tight. next thing i know i look at the vaccum and airfuels and they were both great! i was so happy to see that. my guess is hitting the sensor option cleaned out all the sensors so they were all working properly. I drove it around today for a bit. Boosted and i was at 50% thottle and was hitting 15psi. BUT we heard no wastegate. so tomorrow i gotta see what up with it being stuck closed. but that would explain how i was boosting at 15psi and 50% throttle. ill let you all know what happend tomorrow!. WOOP!!
