what about any leak on the line from the vaf to the turbo, how much is your vacum on the boost gauge?

So I figured out how I got the clap... it was a very simple but f**kin retarted thing that I didn't check at the beginning. I had my firing order 1-3-4-2 in a clockwise rotation instead of counter clockwise(insert gun into mouth an pull trigger!!) not my brightest moment. Kind of funny how I can completely rebuild the engine an f**k up something so simple.
I still have the battery light on very dim but I am still working on that one! Thanks again for all of your help an please feel free to laugh at my dumb ass mistake!

so you didn't notice the car wasn't firing properly? :/ glad you found your problem tho...

But that's the thing was it would idle fine. But there was a dead spot between 1500-2000 when you revved it. Trust me I have had a few other people look at an they didn't notice it either including some pretty reputable BPT people!

When my alt light goes on Ireplace it with another (more than likely picked up at a JY for 20 bucks) and problem solved...I had to replace the alt on my BJ a week ago... $165 for a rebuilt, 20$ at Kenny's u pull ....means I could buy 8 and still break even...was a no brainer...

well yes if your time is worthless

I prefer to spend the money on one I know isn't going to fail anytime soon.
I got one for 150 in ottawa taxes in.

the install time wasn't factored in...and you most probably bought one that came from Kenny's , was cleaned up and had the zener diode changed on it...it's as much a crap shoot for you as for me...and I got a warranty also... 30 days but hey wtf...
