Twin 76 first drive video.
Nice work! Congratulations on the baby! your first one? I too am under the gun to get my turbo truck pretty much squared away before my baby is born. I got about 4 weeks left!
yes it is my first one.... We have been together for about 9 years so we think it is a good time.
As far as the mis goes. I changed the spark plugs, and it does not seem to run any better. can I put 98 coils on my 99? Are they the same! I will swap those out if I thought it would make a difference. I think If finally threw a code when I was just rolling up my windows so I will check to see what came up in the morning. I also checked all the plug wires none melted. I am still only getting about 7 to 8" of vacuume. IS this normal for a turbo car?

Are you logging any of your driving? I'd be hesitant getting in it much on a base tune. Do you have a fuel pressure gauge in the car? Seems you could be losing fuel when you give it some throttle. I can't wait to see the pics tomorrow.
I do not have anyway to log it.... I do not have Hptuners. I am not trying to get in it. But I can tell you that it seems fine until you come to a stop then it wants to die. It also feels like it is getting way to much fuel. May be because there are a couple cylinders not firing
When I put my blower on the car ran like absolute ****, also had a vac leak, I finally got burned reusing the intake manifold gaskets, changed them... #15vac at idle. Might want to check for a vac leak. If evey thing checks out, get it on a dyno I sent my computer to a sponsor for a base line and it was pig rich, missing, popping ect. After three pulls on the dyno, the tuner was taking a break and i was changing plugs with the car on the rollers. Each car is different and you'll be surprised how far off it can be. PS. your turbo's sound sick.
Thanks, Tomorrow I think I am going to switch the coil packs to the oppisite sides and see if that make a difference. It has been 8 months since the car has been driven and I am ot sure how many times those things have been moved so Maybe I switched them.
one problem that I am having that someone might be able to help me with is. When it is warmed up, if I let off the gas at all it dies. Anything that I should look at..... Also I am only getting 5" of vacuum.... I have my catch can vented to the atmosphere should I change this.
