Garage
So today my car died. Well it's not so bad as that, the engine is fine as far as I can tell and the turbo seems fine too. I'm waiting for a tow back to my house where it will sit in the garage until I can work on it this weekend.

Basically what happened was that I was on my way to work, just doing normal driving when the car acted weird all of a sudden. Throttle just didn't respond and gradually slowed down to a stop and died. The cat cranks over smoothly but doesn't actually start. This has me thinking that it's a fuel system issue...as in not getting any fuel. I will be passed if the HPFP died, and will definitely be bringing my car in to have that replaced under warranty. Nothing I have done to my car would affect the pump. That said I highly doubt that it is the HPFP...it's more likely to be the pump I installed, which luckily for me I have a couple spares on hand!

Anyhow, just figured I'd post up here, I am hoping it's something simple because if it isn't ill be kissing my Corvette dreams goodbue, well at least for a little while.
