Thanks both of you. I had major problems yesterday. Either the manifold cracked at the flange where the turbo sits or the gasket blew out because it was blowing exhaust directly on the wire looms and melted the shit out of alot of wires around the area. My horn started going off for no reason and wouldn't stop. I have to take apart everything and re-wire and find out exactly what happend. Even the washers I had on turbo holding it to the flange were melting. Crazy shit.

 

You should get it tune ASAP, I never even started the car trailer it to the tuner and they start it up, seems to be the best way to go. You have balls to drive it around not tune.

 

If you want to tow it over, I have access to a trailer and my diesel truck can handle it with ease.

 

my dumb ass friend has been driving his rsx turbo with no tune for a year, idiot, he doesnt rev above 7000 for fear of blowing the motor, oh yea he has no money

 

I was told by 2 tuners it would be ok for me to drive it as long as I'm on the stock ecu with stock injectors and stay out of boost. I'm not daily driving it. I was driving it to get tuned and its actually pretty easy to stay out of boost as long as you have a boost gauge.

The other reason I wanted to drive it is exactly for what happened. If I had trailored it and something like this happened I would've wasted my money towing the car and had to take the car back home to fix it and tow it again. You're probaly saying well just have them fix it. They would probaly charge me $300+ for parts and labor for something I could do for $30 unless its the manifold and I would send it back to get fixed. The car ran great! It was cooling good, no misfires, no symptoms of anything bad. Just heat issues and exhaust leak (big one).


Thanks AGBLLET I appreciate your offer. I miss having my diesel trucks!
