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

Thanks,

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

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

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

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.

Hey guys just wondering if you have had any experience with heat wrapping headers ? What kind did you use?

I used to use DEI heat wrap on my old EVO and DSM's and a few old Camaros. Works pretty good. You can get it at autozone and Advanced Auto

what about heat wrapping intake pipes??? or charge pipes in your case

Why would I wrap that? I want that cold as possible. I'm wrapping the headers and the rest of the exhaust back to the turbo

wheee! · 09-19-2012, 01:51 PM

Heat wrap will insulate the pipe... keep it cold or hot depending on the purpose.
