is it just not pulling as hard as you think it should or is it running rough also? if you have run a compresion check and ur good than that would pretty much rule out blown head gasket. i'd check the 02 sensors if it's runnin rough

his car is running fine, idle's fine, he put the test pipe in there but that hasn't changed the way his car feels really.

its like darknigh says, the car runs fine. i does not idle or drive rough. just doesnt have as much power as it should. if a sunfire with a fartcan and cold air intake can keep up with me, you know something is wrong. lol. the turbo spools up fine, up to 14 psi. im going to have the tps sensor replaced becuase im showing an code on it. hopefully that will solve it. unless you guys have anymore suggestions.

Just to close out this thread and to keep the issue and solution together for future searches.
ORIGINAL: bestwiseguy

a few of you might remember a little while back aboutus saying my gst was being sluggish and did not have the power it should.I mentioned that i was flashing a tps code, so we figured it was bad or needed adjusting. well i took it the my local machanic and it turns out that whatever dumb **** owned the car before me put on a tps sensor from montero sport. well needless to say that wasmy problem, lol. just though id share that with everyone.
