Please DO NOT Post In The General Section

From this point on until otherwise briefed, posting in the general section of Performance Tech is prohibited. The only thing to remain here will be the stickies. We would just delete this section, but that would cause unintended results.


The majority of the threads created can appropriately be placed in one of the Performance Tech sub-forums or Technical; and the posting of them here is detrimental to the activity of said forums. If you have any questions about where you need to place your thread PM me or one of the other mods.


For the most part you all have caught on without this post, but there have been a few habitual offenders that forced me to say this.


Everyone will get a couple of warnings from here on out, after that I just start deleting threads.

Again if you have any questions, PM me or one of the other mods.

          mine kinda makes a clicking when going. everything runs fine though. a little bit of oil comes out of the compressor though. should be fine

            clicking?? make sure your manifold to turbo bolts are tight. mine was clicking for a few weeks and i couldnt figure out what it was for the life of me. turned out to be the manifold bolts being loose

                tightened down all manifold bolts, but still clicking. my guess is exhaust manifold, since I still have the used one on. I have a new one, I was waiting on putting it on.

                        well I am just saying it could happen! Relax guy, I am just trying to get a rise out of yah! Peace! P.s. Im sorry if it annoyed you, but I am sure if you hooked up everything right and fed the turbo some oil and made sure there were no leaks, oil or air, than the last thing is wether or not the basemap is good for your setup, if it runs to lean or to rich! Just my 2 cents
