Turbo Problems please help
Hey guys
So i have a FBM base kit installed on my frs I was away for 9 days and today i took it out and my clutch felt really weird. It felt like it has no play at all and really stiff. Worse part is that when i was goin into boost (4k rpm) the car didnt wanna go . It stopped and the rpm when all the way down and then it went again. My AFR was like 8.2 which is really rich. What can be cAusing the problems? Can i blow my engine because of this?

Not enough info to determine what is happening but I would recommend you stop driving it until you are able to diagnose the issue.

Just stay out of boost when you drive there and you'll be okay.

Just thinking outloud here... Can you fully open your wastegate, go back to a safe baseline tune, then drive it to the shop without boost?

Have you checked all the hoses to make sure there is no leak?

Sounds like a classic boost leak. You are probably leaking metered air causing a rich afr.
Don't know about the clutch issue... |
