it runs great, is way too quiet and the alternator dont charge but looks brand new.. one more thing to add to the list[:'(]
already checked over and tested evrything the alt is crap

its crazy, lol, so i took it for a ride , it dont spool till about 3500 rpm, right before the turbo spools (about 3000 - 3200) it starts burbling horribly rich, then pours a huge cloud of black smoke out then the front tires go up in a blaze (AWD parts are still on the garage floor)
its not rich at all untill its WFO and gets to about 3k then it just goes to hell for a second then comes on like someone kicked it in the ***, it runs alot stronger than i expected out of it for no adjustments at all, just gotta figure out the sudden dump of fuel, i did notice right when it does it the retarded stock boost guage jumps to 10 or so, what a waste of space

Are you using the donor car's ECU or the ECU that was in the original car?

using the original ECU (93 talon Tsi) basically the same as the donor car (91 laser RS) all of the sensors looked the same, but i changed alot of them over, i do have a check engine light i need to figure out and the low coolant light never goes out even though its full, im not exaclty sure how to get codes out of a DSM without a scanner, i know how to do it on most other cars
but remember i have the 2g MAF wired in, different injectors and stuff so i'm probly gonna need to just work the bugs out of it and get a AFC
and not to mention the turbo timer doesnt work, its just there for looks right now
