    Wastegate is probably not sealing. The only time I had an idling problem is when I used too much octane booster.

        Have you driven it? Can you take it up and down the street nursing it or are you just letting it warm up in the driveway? Timing is mechanical, and shouldnt be a drastic change to kill an engine when warm or cold. It would run doodoo under load warm or not.

        Im thinking VAM too. It's more than 2 wires. Its got power ground and the signal wires. It might be getting the currents right to let the car fire but the info it needs is wrong.

            Lol screw off Willie :p JK

            I've messed around spark timing as well, doesn't change anything

            I unplugged the VAF last night while running, and it stayed running with the VAF unplugged (which surprised the hell out of me) I can't help but wonder if the VAF is giving an improper signal

            If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?
