My laptop died so I couldn't check the codes but I'll charge it and see what is going on
If the plug was fouled that doesn't necessarily mean it was the cause of the fault. Still swap the coil to a different cylinder and see what happens. If you have an oil level sensor fault, check the wiring to the sensor for damage from debris or rodents. It's a very common issue in the cooler times of the year.

He has the motiv kit i personally did not wire in the AIC controller except for transferring one wire to the max boost ( was suggested by dzenno a while back ) do to unstable readings . Everything else i installed AFAIK we took Terry's flash for port injection and installed that into AIC as a place to start . Don't know if any modifications were done to that map or not .Nothing really difficult here as far as setting it up or wiring in the AIC its just small tweaks to the fuel map and re log tweak re log that sort of thing.

Any questions please feel free to PM me

Ok here is what I currently need help with.

1. Figuring out if my battery is shot, alternator or wiring issues.
2. Figuring out why it's smoking so bad (going to try an oem pcv valve)
3. Running some logs, basically tuning for this elevation (it's smells really rich.
4. Installing an AFR gauge/boost gauge. I should have everything.

If anybody can help shoot me a PM with your number if you're comfortable with that. I can jump my car and drive it but I don't want to change going to Denver. Any help would be great.

I have to run to my local union to see if I can get work as a local hand out here, when I return I'll take pics of the items I want to sell out trade work for.

This is too easy all you need is a DMM

2. Figuring out why it's smoking so bad (going to try an oem pcv valve)
Would have to take a closer look at the car, could be a number of things.

3. Running some logs, basically tuning for this elevation (it's smells really rich.
Not too familiar with JB set up but sure I could figure it out and help

4. Installing an AFR gauge/boost gauge. I should have everything.
Which brand gauge do you have?

He is running MHD with custom wedge flash that was not calibrated for your sea level
Turbos have been replaced once had smoking issues then a second time and are the car is still smoking . Hehas no cats with after market exhaust . RB pcv was installed when I had the car its the only thing changed on the pcv side maybe a bad valve even though I think I have only heard of one since its conception but who knows ? .can't imagine 2 sets of turbos having the same problem .

I bought a new OEM pcv valve and the cables for my mhd. I might buy 5 new index 12 injectors and just swap them now.

That is the plan for now anyways.

Welcome to Colorado! Sorry for the unfortunate car problems. You're the guy that they say moved here! I'm the second customer with rr600's and mine are running strong. You should try to contact wedge and see if he can tweak your tune similar to mine since I'm currently on revision 8 with them.

As far as smoke. Is the smoke coming from both exhaust sides or one side only?

PM me and we can text

Ha, I sound of read this first before responding to your pm. Smoke is coming out of both exhaust tips. I have a new pcv valve to throw in and new injectors. Should be on that today, then I'll pull the battery to go get it tested and hopefully that will get it running Beyer until the tune

Oil in exhaust tips? White smoke ? Does it smell like burnt oil or sweet? Bluish white smoke?

It's a sweet smelling, white smoke. After changing the bad pcv valve the smoke is under control. Just needs to be tuned now, it's definitely running rich.

I'm awaiting the INPA software to change and code my injectors. Then it will be the time.

Now that's coolant burning some how. Not oil luckily. Could be a lot of things but besides that, your car running better?

Is running decent driving it like a grandma but under boost it starts flipping codes. I tested it last night I'm going to see what codes it has right now and I'll report back.

Misfire cylinder 1 now. I'm guessing another plug. So these plugs literally have maybe 200 miles on them, they were gapped correctly. My question is with it running so rich is that the cause of these plugs fouling out so quickly. I have the NGK iridium.

I'm so tired of this.

Figured I would update. Car is running good, still needs a tune.

Bryan found out I have a leak in my tranny now and my thermic oil level sensor is bad. Other than that I'm good to go.

The new injectors, coil packs and plugs seem to be doing the trick with the misfires.
