***Blackonorange's STS Turbo Build!! - Done by Speedtech Saskatoon***

Speedy

Surely the motor didn't pop?

blackonorange

Very unlikely but a possibility

I can't see how the kit itself would be the cause of the problems seen here. It's only touching the intake and exhaust of the motor. Can't blame STS hardware for a blown ring, etc. Now if the tune was F'ed up initially, that could have caused problems.

the tune was done by sts then UAM did a good job with the tune by retuning it and taken off the meth kit it had for some problems they had , the car came and the tune was good air fuel was perfect , the check engine came up after some time but ppl say thats normal with forced inductions , although in the others customers gtm kit it never had any check engine , i did notice once misfiring , and another code cant remember it but if u u guys look at my posts i think i posted the code that came up , anyway the mechanic was too busy didnt do a compression test yet , i still have hope the its not internal because having oil on plugs doesnt mean ring piston right away it might mean alot of stuff , such as cylinder walls or excessive clearance in the valve steam , and if the pcv is plugged or inoperative it can cause building up crankcase pressure which will force oil and oil vapors past rings and valves guides into the combustion chamber which will blow oil like crazy on plugs for example ,

am just going nuts because i took of the pcv from its route and closed all hoses with screws , and air filled with little smoke is coming up from every single way it can reach which means all the boost is leaking out for some reason , even if the engine blew , in the world of power 7psi ,11psi or 1000psi **** happens , we just have to live with it and learn more and more , i hope

did a compression test , dry and wet and results are so nice loool , its inbetween 140 to 200 , i guess the normal compression test should be 200's , two of them are 200's the rest are 140 , 150,160 etc etc , so engine is messed up thats why all the boost is not building up and going to the oil pan i guess not where its suppose to go to , i am shocked , but again as i said shi* happens , time to open up the beast

blackonorange

Yikes , oh well at least now u can do some internals , my car is running great , the only problem is traction and keeping gas in the tank

blackonorange

Well guys I got the dreaded p0300 code ( multiple misfires ) what can i do to get rid of it , I'll try cleaning the maf sensors

Check your spark plugs if you've been boosted for a while! Especially if you are on the factory plugs.

I just put in those hks / gtr plugs like a month ago

tower74

It could be your ignition coils as well...if not then it's the plugs. I would pull them and check them out.

blackonorange

Plugs are brand new , I erased the code and hasn't come back yet , I've heard ppl with just intakes get this code ,

tower74

I got the same code as well...but of course mine was due to the motocross plugs....Either way I would watch that and your oil. Don't forget that oil is getting used twice each cycle. Once I get mine fixed, buying that test pipes tomorrow, and finally tuned, the car is gone. So good luck with your system and I hope this is the only problem you see

blackonorange

Why you selling!?!

erkthejerk73

whats next?

are you kidding he has had the worst luck ever with STS

tower74

Gonna have to buy a 4x4 truck for the new job. At the same time I'm hoping to be back in a Z by spring....gonna try and pick up a Nismo and put some twins on her.

Yes it's because of all the shyt I've gone through with the system and still going through.
