Ok. Well I had my car into the local certified Saab dealer for an a/c compressor replace. Mine seized. So when finished I pick up the car. Everythings great. Didn't really boost on the way home. Later that night when I hit boost I noticed it was coming on unusualy strong it seemed. Then I parked turned off the car at my destination. And upon leaving started it back up, started driving. Now ever since I get 3-5psi and as the rpms rise it goes to 0. So naturally I take it back to saab. They call me tell me my wastegate is adjusted wrong. They "fixed" it at no charge then called and assured me it was in working order. So I go pick up the car. Drive off, Same problem. I turn right back, service advisor sees me.. And walks away and hides in the back. But obviously they cant fix my car. So I turn to the good people on the forums. I've checked for leaks, doesnt appear to be any. Vac is good, no leaks. No CEL's. BPC hoses connected correctly. MAF appears to be installed correctly. I dont beleive its lhm, because my best friends viggen would get like steady 1psi and it announced LHM on the SID. I've pulled the neg terminal and left it for an hour or so. That also didn't help. I miss my car. And of course now, I have all these good potential races lol.
Its a 99 viggen. My Mods are:
Speed Parts Stage 1
Optiflow Intake
Custom FMIC
Removed 1st Muffler
Greddy Type S BOV Recirculated
