ill start off with the car has been rebuilt new gaskets, bearings, turbo, ect. under boost it seamed to be sluggish. almost as if it was skipping. it was running really rough. if you give it throttle under a load it runs rough. cruise it runs ok.

today it blew a coolant hose going to the turbo, i fixed that. now it wounlt start. when i get it running, it blows black smoke. changed the plugs as they were all wet and fuel folled.

at tdc the timing mark is at like 4 or 5, i think the book says its supost to be 0. it has aem cam gears, which i wish i could take off but i only have 1 stock gear.

i have fuel and spark, the tp sensor connector was off for a while today, i thought that was why it loaded up with fuel but it didnit fix it. the car has alot of new parts. if anyone has any advice on where to start let me here it.

i have a few people coming over tomorow to take a look at it. if anyone in the RI area wants to come help me work on this car, let me know.

ill post up pics of the car tonight for everyone. thats all i can think of now.
