I really hate my DSM...Need some Help
It seems everytime I turn around my car is messing up.Why is it when a DSm hits 100k everything wants to break down.
My problem is now oil pressure gauge is broke and my car idles funny.the idle lopes from 1500 to 2000 rpms.It doesnt do it as bad now since I took the dump tube off but it still bothers me.Any advice?Thanks in advance

Re: I really hate my DSM...Need some Help
did you hack the dump tube, or are you venting your BOV into the atmosphere? if you are venting it will give you problems.

No when I was not venting it did it worse.Now that I am it has gotten some what better but did not cure it.So I am thinking its a boost leak somewhere.

Re: Re: I really hate my DSM...Need some Help
you are probably right on about the boost leak. check around the BOV and make sure it is secure, leaks usualy happen here. also, you may want to look into getting an aftermarket BOV. a cheap one is a 1st generation BOV. it is metal [stock 2g is plastic] and you can get them on ebay pretty cheap, and they mount exactly the same. if you are thinking about going further with tuning, just drop a new thread. i'm not going to go into the upgrades you can get into now, but if you want me to i can.

Yes, if you get the compressor housing machined ("profiled") for the bigger 16g wheel.
