Throttle Control Motor Circuit Range/Performance.

did you mess with any wiring, at all? perhaps you moved the turbo enough to disturb the engine harness. check plugs having to do with your dbw/tb and the wiring itself.

No not at all, I removed the DP and the heat shield to make the uppipe removal easier (which I had to install the headers and uppipe in a hurry and when I turned the car on it sounded like I had an exhaust leak). This happened last night after one last run. Car limped all the way to my house and wouldn't even make it up my driveway:/... I had to leave it up front... Before I got out I cleared the DTC and left it alone for the night. This morning I went out to see what's up and the car started fine without a problem.... Checked out all the wiring around the TB and nothing looked damaged.... HELP***128557;***128557;***128557;

well, if it really is just a coincidence, maybe the climate also had something to do with a connection somewhere.

if you didn't get new gaskets, it's highly recommended. a complete oem set from eBay would be a better buy, unless you want a set from GS.

Yeah the new system came with pretty good gaskets, the only one I didn't replace was the dp gasket cause that one is almost new.... Idk I guess come tomorrow I will take it to work and put it up on a lift and see if I can locate the leak and I can check to make sure all the wiring around the new parts isn't busted :/

Replaced the o ring on my PS pump. Was starting to whine and bubble when it got cold out. No bubbles yet, but real test comes later this week.

Got under the car to find a small coolant leak (did, hopefully taken care of) and found oil coming from driver's side valve cover. Which is just perfect since a shop replaced both of them about a month back due to a (much smaller) leak on the passenger side. le sigh.

Made a roof rack (thule, Yakima etc are too expensive), mudflaps(cause rally armors are too small and way overpriced), and tinted my windshield. With all 3 mods I didn't spend a penny over $150

More or less done with it. Need another bolt to complete the install. Only sad it will all be hidden by the aluminum skid plate

Bought myself a Fumoto QwikValve gift set. And, as a bonus, the discount code that supposedly expired on Dec 27 still worked! Five percent discount when you type "GIFT14".

First time I ever looked forward to an oil change!

my friend got ripped off by them bad, they didn't install the parts they claimed they did and my friend will be taking them to court. Sucks that there are more people getting ripped off by them.
