Only after the problem happened I didn't touch the car before hand

It's funny you say the ignitor

My car stalled and wouldn't start again a while ago and I decided to change the ignitor and it started straight up but was gluggy as it is now

Could that be ignitor as well?

Didn't think about buying a new one

So many things it could be... A few to check/swap/test/clean

CAS

TPS

AFM

Fuel pump

Voltage to fuel pump

Hard to tell as "glug" could mean a lot of things, but if you try all these ^ plus what youve already done you should get somewhere.

Also make sure the spare bits you try are known working, not possibly working. Actually install them on or borrow them from a mates car that runs properly.

Good luck!

Yeah I think it's something electrical

Could it be as simple as my battery?

AFM is fine as far as I know

I clean it every month as I change air filter every month

If its not electrical it has to be the fuel pump

Its most probably the AFM, the contacts inside sometimes come loose and require resoldering. Do a search if you feel confident, or just replace it with a know good one.

Just looking at a component and seeing it is clean doesn't mean it is working.

    • Yes, well, keep in mind that the air is intake air, which equal boost + possible oil. If there is a fine deposition of oil/scunge that then gets hot and carbonises, it could look just like that. Probably shouldn't be leaking. Might just be normal for that product. Hard to know if it is relevant.
    • Wrapped up putting the motor back in today. I have a stainless flex turbo drain pipe like you see on cummins and that funny enough PRP started selling. I generally prefer these but sadly they come with a finite amount of times they can be bent before they snap. Took well over a week for a replacement to arrive.  I was able to prime the pump but I will more then likely wait until next friday to take it on its madden voyage. I also installed the nozzles for my direct port WMI setup but plugged the nozzle holders for now. I'll tube it with Swagelok SS tubing and fittings next chance I get. No rush, i'll be breaking it for a week or two anyways. 
    • I could definitely do some logs without the VCT enabled for sure. I believe we tried it on the dyno and it still spiked but wouldn't hurt to try again and have the logs    I might be able to use some metal cable ties and hold the gate open entirely, I'd need to see about that one.   What do we think about these marks on the cap of the actuator? This is where the two parts push together where the diaphragm spring is. To me they look like air has been sleeping past?? Specifically talking about those black stains above the lower rim/lip. They can be rubbed away as if it's just an exhaust stain.  
    • And if it still spikes, just for now, turn off VCT completely by disabling it OR simply unplug the solenoid. Just to rule out excessive exhaust pressure. I recall a video from Motive DVD about a decade ago, where Hawkins original single Garrett GTX3582 or so turbo had boost control issues sub 1.4bar of boost as well.   Food for thought? Is there anyway you can peg the WG completely open and/or dodgily not plumb it back into your exhaust system for testing purposes?
