Re: idleing?

check solinoid and vac hookups for the boost. A disconnected vac could cause bad idle and low boost. Sure its 7lbs. dont go by stock guage. Bad idle could be a ton of things. Most common are:
vac line, iac, egr, tps, bad cap,rotor, wires or plugs(type or gap).

Where to start.....

Is it throwing any troube codes? (Check engine light)

Lets see,with the bad idle,the first thing I would do is check for vacuum leaks.I don't know jack about the stock wastegate,but I imagine that a vac leak would prevent it from working correctly.


Where are you in CO? Maybe someone from here that's local can give you a hand.

sometimes after about 5 minutes of driving the check engine light will come on but when i turn off the ty it goes off.
