edge Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 Ok i put up a tread yesterday as i thought my tubbies were on there way out. Thanks to CW for confirming there not. Went for a spin earlier to get some facts 1. No smoke on cold start up 2. No noticable smoke when driving farly hard. 3. When on the 1st turbo its very hesitant. 4. As above - the boost guage gets to o.7 bar then drops 0.1/0.2 bar before the 2nd turbo comes in. 5. If left to idle for a minute then i blip the throttle sometimes but not always i get a big puff of blue smoke. All i have recently done is put a new set of plugs and it ran like a dream for a few day? Also there was some sludgy oily gunk where the HKS SSQV faces the big black pipe. Any ideas greatly received Thanks Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 a few people have had this lately, along with 5 or so diffrent threads about it. Its the EEGV or EEGC vsvs causing the problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edge Posted April 9, 2007 Author Share Posted April 9, 2007 Just had a read through this http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=35926 and not sure what mines closest to. Could the old plugs have caused the O2 sensor to foul up? Is my fault a symptom of that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

veilsideTT Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 Really can see the point in big twins to be honest. I was under the impression they are a PITA to set up. You cant beat a properly set up T61/67 IMO! Go on, give the bank manager a call Would be if i had the money. But if i was to spend that then it would have to be a big twins for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edge Posted April 10, 2007 Author Share Posted April 10, 2007 All these members and no one has any idea? Basicly drops off 0.2 bar on first turbo, feels crap before 2nd comes in. can smoke when throttle blipped after idle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
