Definitely a turbo. AVO maybe? Someone more into turbos will be able to identify it clearly

LOL
I think im gonna spend the 850 and get the car retuned by a local tuner and then hopefully from there shel be okay....
Check engine light is off since yesterday when I touch the exhaust pipes its still way to much liquid black crap coming out, sometimes the car is backfiring when I rev the engine and the 02 sensors im guessing are off.
hope this car will be ready to race this summer and doesnt end up costing me more than a grand to fix

Sounds like you already have an ecutek license. Any ecutek tuner wil be able tell you in about thirty seconds of sitting in the car. And it sounds like you got it figured out. You may honestly just be on the basemap. You should ask the tuner to query the Ecu and get the flash count I am curious what the count currently is.

Need more info.

1. What kit is on the car?
2. Do you have any logs to share?
3. What additional parts are on the car?
4. Did it throw these codes right after a tune or was it days or weeks later?
5. Anything that you changed that may have caused a CEL? Literally anything?

There are a million questions to ask, but each one leads us down a path and narrows in on what the problem, cause and solution is for your vehicle.

Cheers,

hahah, it says full blown turbo in his profile....

I got the car in november, it didnt seem right since day one, the check engine light only came on about a week ago though, its a stage 1 full blown turbo kit.
I havent made any changes to the vehicle since I got it...
I was driving in toronto and thats when I noticed The check engine light came on. Im not sure if it was from hitting a bad pot hole... Its automatic with triptronic in it so maybe when I was switching from triptronic back to automatic it hit a pot hole and something messed up then? I dont believe I have an ecutek license unless its part of the car? I checked google for an ecutek tuner and I found one that works for subaru in georgetown... thats the closest one to me...
The other person I was refered to by JRP auto was a guy named sasha who works for onpointdyno.com
Im not to sure what the flash count is or what that means or base map lol
thanks for all your help guys!
