Got the codes ran. A random misfire and coolant level but no leaks so nothing ridiculously bad. Anyways it still dies at idle but Greddy said a BOV will solve that and here are the graphs we pulled from three runs. One very easy, one normal, and one hard:

There's no BOV on ur car?

For the ten thousand time I have to get the BOV installed to stop the dying at idle problem.

the BOV we know is one problem that will be fixed soon

The missfire could be to the motor not holding compresion. You really should get it checked.

No Ghost my question was There is CURRENTLY no BOV on your car? Just curious why you'd start the car without the BOV on a turbo setup..

according to greddy the boost is too low and doesn't require one.

Holy shit... for once, I agree.... Ghost, get a compression test man. After you cleared the codes, did they return?

Why is Greddy saying the BOV is causing an idle problem? A BOV should do exactly 0 at idle.

But yet Greddy says that installing one will cure the problem? Fishy.

The idle problem is actually gone. I rerouted the pressure sensor to the top of the intake manifold and it stopped reading pressure at idle. I'm installing the BOV now just for good measure. I believe the ECU was causing the problem with the pressure but it could have been any number of things.

So is it now running good?

rx8ghost · Postby **rx8ghost** » Mon Mar 10, 2008 9:14

It runs fine but I have to get the compression checked today after work.
