No I wasnt trying to hold it up there haha, the kid wanted to hear it so I would do a quick press down of the gas and have the rpms jump to say 3-4 thousand and then once they lowered I would do the same thing. I am not trying to redline my car in park lol. I have been planning on reoiling my...

Yeah I know that but I am saying at lets say 2500-3000 rpms its nothing. The first time I hit the gas it went up and made the usual exhaust sound but after that is was nothing but a dying sputter. I cleaned the MAF 1,500 miles ago

Over the summer I topswapped my 04 grand prix and now recently it has been surging at idle after maybe 15-20 minutes of running. Mods are headers, 3.6" pulley, HAI, colder plugs with new zzp wires, and zzp canned tune. Car has 0 kr and seems to be running fine besides that. Recently on start...

Thanks to turbo my car is finally all fixed everything is actually running how it is supposed to be and not squealing at me. I am now seeing about 10.5 psi of vacuum too which is great and I am not dumping boost anymore. You really do know your shit and everything there is to know about the...

Ok so I should just unplug the bbv from underneath the SC snout and plug it up correct? Sorry I am trying to comprehend all of this so I get it right

If I am looking at that correctly it looks like the boost bypass solenoid goes to the spot under the snout. Since I do no have the solenoid I should just plug right where the bbv should connect to the solenoid correct? And I am not sure where my MAP sensor goes since I have not looked at that...

Alright sounds good. Do i plug up where ever the hose ends under the snout?

Where do I hook up my boost Guage then? And do I plug under the snout of the supercharger also? Like where he had the other side of the house going to?

Sorry I have been busy today changing a alternator and belt on my car to stop a damn squealing noise, I think it is the pcv valve after some research. The bottom of the bbv has a hose hooked up to it that goes right under the snout of the supercharger and connects to maybe the LIM? It is not...

Let me go check and see if it is plugged or not and I will get back to you guys asap

Alright, I was just wondering to see what I can bring it up to. Should I have him put the bbv back on?

Well I had it installed at my grandpas friends house and he took off one of the sensors or something like that so the computer doesnt control the boost and I have to manually control the boost by adjusting this blackish cylinder looking thing(if I remember the shape correctly) on the SC

How much boost do you think is safe to run on a 04 gp that is top swapped, headers, HAI, and 3.5" pulley with a zzp 1.0 tune? Right now I am running 4 pounds of boost and seeing no KR so how much do you think would be safe?

I just used a calculator for it online and -9.5(which is what my current readings are based on my aeroforce) is about -19.3 inhg which is about where I should be on vacuum. Just had to calculate it out using the different units of measurement to get the info I needed

alright if that seems right then I guess that is why when I was spraying starter fluid the engine didnt rev up. Thanks for the help

Yea it is reading in psi and I am not sure, how would I check?

So after putting in my topswap I am seeing -7in/hgs of vacuum on my boost gauge and -9.5 on my aeroforce. How should I check for vacuum leaks?

Turbo once again you were right and I did not need that alt brace I need a new alternator. Thanks again for all the help!

Ok so I guess I needed the alternator brace? and not the bracket. And thanks for all the help so far

Anyone know any junkyards with a 04+ grand prix in it? I need a MAP sensor bracket and a alternator bracket out of a gtp so I can finish my topswap. I think the alternator bracket may be universal throughout the SC 3800 engines so I dont need one out of a grand prix only correct? I can take...
