removed turbo kit and car wont run right
hey guys.
i pulled my greddy turbo kit off and installed stock style injectors, plugs and the intake tube and for some reason i can seem to get the car to run smoothly. it will start and die then start and run but very rough fluctuations in idle and when i try to drive it it bogs hard and doesnt have any power. when it was turboed it ran just fine except for the exhaust leak on the manifold connection to the head. any ideas? any one in the local area willing to take a look and see what i forgot?

In for an answer. I current have the same problem, but coming from a supercharger instead. Ran brilliantly. When I went back to stock, I also installed stock style injectors because I gave my OEM injectors to a local who was in need. My guess its either the injectors or the MAP sensor.

i aint gonna lie. i bought cheapo ebay injectors that said oem s2000 for $50. i didnt want to spend like $250 on densos or bosch. how would the map sensor go bad? the greedy kit had a missing link type thing with it when i ran the turbo

I probably bought the exact same injectors as you. But if you're having the exact same problem I'm having, then it's most likely the eBay injectors. A faulty map sensor could also cause these symptoms, but its pretty rare they go bad. I'll let you know what I find out when I get stock injectors installed on the car.
