if it is not in the middle for 15 degree then you either have the cam timing off or maybe the head and block have been milled and you may need cam gears
i did that. it looked off too me. but he didnt believe me so we put the valve cover back on lol.

i think a coil is bad personally

on the ecu there is a dial you can turn with a flat head screwdriver turn all the way in then all the way out, then count the light it gives you the code the long flashes are your first digit and the short one is your second digit, that is your trouble code, just hope your light works, mine didnt haha

the 7psi bog/bucking is generally caused by bad timing, so.. if you've set your base timing with a gun, it could be:

- boost leak ( ecu pulls timing, because the MAF is confused )

- CAS is off, restab it, and reset base timing.

- MAF problem, loose connector? dead maf? wiring?

Does anybody wanna let me borrow their coilpacks and maf to see what it does?? Maybe I can figure something out. Also I'm gonna take the valve cover off and check the cams timing. Any places where I can get the info from??? Thanks guys.
