Hey Guys Ive finally got my 94 wrx back on the road. Ive double checked everything before going for a test drive..I took it out for its first drive when suddenly it stalls but it doesn't turn off i hold my foot on the gas and out of nowhere it kicks back again. It really annoys me lol Ive got told it was a airflow meter, I changed that and still same problem. Just wanted to check if anyone went through this. Another odd thing is that it wont do this if i lean on the gas a bit. help please haha..

Car has current mods:

3inch turbo back.

Equal length extractors.

Trust Pod Filter.

Walbro 500hp fuel pump.

Full A/C delete.

sti injectors

Bov

Removed rocker cover breathers. Replaced with simota filters

Just listed mods just incase it affects the car.

Fix this, your car is not speed-density, that is a vacuum leak, there's a reason they're plumbed back.

are you sure? I dont think its a vacuum leak as its on the wrong side of the pistons, its only letting blow by vent.

its not ideal as he'll end up with fuel/oil vapour everywhere but it shouldn't cause any drama unless he's done something funny with the PCV i.e left a hole in the intake without plugging it

Depends how healthy the PCV is and whether it has the secondary intake breather (before the throttle body/turbo straight from the block) If that is present it is a pretty big vacuum leak. Take your oil cap off and go for a drive if you want to see what I mean.

Got my car to work and hooked it up to a scanner, and yeah few codes got pulled up

52.Parking position switch

44.Turbocharging pressure control output signal

43.Accelerator pedal switch

33.Vehicle speed sensor

32.Oxygen sensor

24.Idle control system malfunction

15.Fuel injector #2

Haha oh well at least this gives me my answer( well hopefully:/)

What is code 44 though? is that got to do with the boost solenoid?

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
