I need some newb help...

I just got my typhoon running again after installing a new A2A intercooler, underdrive pulley and battery relocation. It just doesn't seem to be running right now.

It hesitates when I hit the gas hard (sounds like it misfires or something). It almost dies when I go around a sharp corner. And the BOV makes a choppy sound instead of the crisp sound it used to make.

Also I noticed these vacuum line connections are open and going no where...

Any help with these issues would be greatly appreciated.:tup:

Thanks in advance

Re: I need some newb help...

well your missing vacume to the EGR valve, no vacume to your BOV, and no vacume to the WGA.... This will all cause your truck to run like dog shit!!! All you need to do is get vacume to those and you should be good

I would HIGHLY recommend one of the silicone Vacuum kits that you can purchase from this site!

Ok Thanks guys, I have a bigger newb question...

What is a WGA? Does that mean "Wastegate Actuator"?

I have an external wastegate.

Yes WGA is the Wastegate actuator. Your third photo shows the Wastegate Actuator for an internal wastegate. Since you have an external WG there's no need for a vacuum line on the internal WG actuator.
