so i installed a new set, well kinda new set of SLP headers on my gtp.. installed em, cracked the lil tube on the EGR purge can. while doing so, tried a quick fix just for the moment until the next paycheck haha.. FAILED !..
So HEADERS ON, i got on the freeway(highway for some) i yeah it pulled nice, i could feel the diff. obviously... oh & i forgot to mention on the flex pipe it had a leakso it sounds crappy when im on the gas while excercising my right to pass slower cars haha (: .. After driving my car around since its my DD I started to get misfires at WOT or really close to WOT after a day or two after the header install..
As for the wires for the o2 sensors we extended the o2 wires for both of em since my cat was still there & we had to move it a lil more back.. we used the butt connectors for the o2 sensor after the car, & black tape(no more cash) for the pre-cat o2 sens. so right away no SES light, next day the SES light came on.. I started to get really CRAPPY MPG i mean went from 27-29 mpg to 15-18 ON THE FREEWAY.. i dont wanna even to mention the city mpg.. I thought it was the tube we broke, so i went and got a new EGR purge can (thank you napa
), installed it.. YES it HELPED but i still got CRAPPY mpg, LESS CRAPPY but still there.. Still had the misfires, still had the REALLY REALLY CRAPPY MPG & now that the prices are going up I really want to get it fixed fast hehe.. before i posted this thread up i was reading I saw that the exhaust leak might/is the main reason for the mpg..
TODAY..
when i was arriving to the gym thats at work, my ABS & TCS lights came on.. i was passing thru threads before i posted mine up.. & maybe its the abs sensor that went bad.. i just replaced both front hubs.. but last oil change while on the lift my dad came to see that the ABS sensor on i dont remember which wheel was loose (it fell of the metal clip).. hopefully its just that.. since now i tried to get on the gas & the misfires are worse, if its the cat ill delete it
Thanks before hand for the help..
