An update. My car is all ready to go, I havent recieved my oil line yet but the new flange is on. There is a very small leak on the line but my new line will be here tomorrow. I went to start the car again and same cranking noise. I put the bypass connector on to bypass the FIC. The car started right up so it was pretty much running on the stock ECU again and I let it idle for like 30min. Rev it alittle not into boost just wanted to hear alil exhaust which sounds great. I then hooked the FIC up and same thing as before. Maybe my wiring is not right? but it did start with the bypass and I checked the wiring again and looks good. Does anyone have any inputs. I know only a few of yall are boosted right now, but any help would be great. I just want to drive my car its been like 2 weeks. Thanks

On my FIC I have 4 injectors hooked up (in&out), a maf (in&out), sensor 02, 3 grounds,TPS,Ignition PWR, 2 crank pos with the negative resistor mod, and 2 cam pos with the negative resistor mod. Is there anything else Im missing? Thanks again.

Check your signal ground and make sure your fic is all up to date.

Wussup Mang? Got it sorted out yet? We want pics, dyno sheets, impressions and more pics!

Since I still haven't installed my turbo, I'd like to live vicariously through you!

My bad, the car has pretty much been sitting. It sucks, ive drove it alil but not getting into boost cause its runnin on the bypass and havent even took the car over 30mph. I have heard the BOV go off and I understand the meaning of RFL like what most people say this means, and that was just from vac to 0psi, cant wait to hear it go off in boost. The exhaust sounds amazing, real quiet and deep how I wanted it..... Well have done alot of trouble shooting and getting alot of help from crush, and the car will be running very soon. My button in the back of the FIC was pretty much stuck and the FIC was not working. Something just so simple and it always is, but I sure have learned alot. I will post more of everything pretty soon. Again thanks for all the help and support, and crush I really appreciate all the help.

btw a warning to others...dont use a needle or safty pin or thumbtac to push in the flash butten on the back of the fic...you can damage the flash butten and then youll be screwed. only use a paper clip, dont have one then go out and get a box of em. or you can send me your fic for set up and base map.

Default Here I GO!!! Vids

Well, I havent went and got dynoed yet. Im actually about to move back to Arizona here very shortly. I will prob go get dynoed just to see my base numbers but will get tuned when I get back home. Im running an internal wastegate and going to get an external soon. Im running 10 psi but by the time I shift at wot, Im at about 6psi. I had this same problem with my internal wastegate on my DSM of losing boost thru the power band, but I am really happy with the car and cant wait to be tuned with a new wastegate....

Hey Mach I just went off the sticky in our forums. They have the two positions located and coming off the ecu, they are two wires but they do become one wire...

Here are some vids for now, but more to come...........
