Turbo Problems

[rx313b]

I seized my HKS GT2540. Not sure how... would the oil being dirty be one option... i just thought of it. anyways when turbo siezed my powerfc had no boost running through it- so negative value... i installed a garrett 3076r the other day and drove it but havent gotten it tuned yet till a few days booked at unigroup engineering. however the powerfc low boost levels...is that normall. i would imagine after changingin all turbo lines external gate dump intake pipe etc everything that it would be back to normal boost or read the old tune level...

do u see any abnormalities....i mite just flush out n put new oil.... why wouldnt it back it normal tune ...car obvisouyl needs a tune and im not plannin to drive it but drove it back from mechanics just to get it home lol. what may the probelm be...

do you mean MONITOR, 1 CHANNEL, BOOST?

if it comes up as --- then the map sensor is connected, you dont have a map sensor or its disabled

you can also verify this by looking at ETC, SENSOR SW CHECK and youll see BOST

if its 0.00 or 5.00v then its not plugged in, you dont have one or its disabled

are you sure you have a map sensor installed? if its meant to be working the sensor name will be highlighted in black in ETC, SENSOR SW CHECK
