Default EDIT!!

This post no longer needs comments. Forget I posted anything at all!

ONE. I didnt even realize I was posting on the Forced Induction Forum.

TWO. All I was asking for was some help! Whether I posted on "forced induction", "drivetrain and power", or "wheels and tires", it was just a question that could have been answered without any smart remarks.

THREE. Find something better to do with your life than sitting there talking Sh*t through forums.

Believe it or not I know a lot more about this stuff than you might think. Likely more than YOU know. All I wanted was some opinions of other tc owners who may have had the same problem and it got turned into a huge ordeal.

first, why is this in the forced induction forum?

second, get a scanguage or go to autozone or whatever and get the code read.

third, find out what the code means and figure out what to do.

could be the intake, could be the header. could be something completely unrelated.

Anyway..... like drax said, check out the code, and try to pinpoint where the problem is coming from. Depending on your mods, it could be coming from a bunch of different locations. Once you have the code #, come back here and let us know and many of us would be glad to try and help.... just put that post in the drivetrain and power instead of FI.
not really a thread ****, i just like prefer things done properly. also, i didn't jump down his throat, i just gave him the bullet points. i could elaborate and flavor the post with emoticons and maybe some images from lol catz, but it didn't seem necessary.

but to each their own.

you did fine Drax. sometimes it's hard to deal with the stupidity that is frequently rampant on this forum.

lol, no, attacking would be like "you worthless maggot noob scum! what part of your cold air intake is forcing air to be inducted into your engine?! did it ever occur to your stupid @$$ that the MAF sensor could be dirty? or that the lack of a primary catalytic converter could make the secondary o2 sensor realize that there is a deficient cat problem? my god, do you know how OBDII dianotic ports work? where are you from? boy? hell, i don't even wanna know, but what you should do is go and apologize to your mamma for making it appear as though she has raised a fool who doesn't know his muffler bearing from his blinker fluid! how did you even get a driver's license and then manage to secure financing for a car in the first place?"

that is jumping down his throat. i tastefully chose to just tell him what he did wrong, and tell him what he needs to do to start fixing this problem. my post was simple, direct, and helpful. how you interpret the tone is entirely up to you. if i oversimplified, so be it. it is a fairly simple problem to begin with, so a simple problem get a simple explanation.
