it just maybe set up right, but you need a way to do live scans on the car to see if its got any KR, before it goes boom!

So it is possible to be setup right and safe w/o intercooling? Dont get me wrong i want it as fast as possible but not having to buy expensive upgrades. Dont really want to buy a scanning devise(had other plans w/ my limited budget for the car) but i will if it means saving my engine. Is there somewhere i can rent one or will a normal code reader work?
Or could a dealership be able to tell me?
does it have headers on it? if not get a a stock pulley back on it.
Yeah it has slp header downpipe and exhuast.
and some kind of tuned pcm?
I dont know its crazy fast and runs,sounds great. Im just a little nervous not know what all is done and being someone elses project. Im not familiar w/ the sc engine. Ive had one but it was stock and just did regular maintainance too it.
pcm, not sure but i would think since its a cheaper mod and he spared no expense anywere else
you should get a scan gauge so you can see whats going on, KR and so on.
like a aeroforce or the other kind.

Sorry i dont mean for this to go so long. Thanks SD for all the help. I will get something to check for KR. I would like to see if i can keep the setup thats on it now because it hauls ass. Plus spending money to slow my car down is a hard pill to swallow:)
if you have a smart phone the cheap way is with the torque app, you need a obd2 plug and transmitter, cost about 30 bucks, plus the app.
its not the most accurate but its something.
Wow! seriously? I guess they are right when they say there is a app for everything!
search "torque app" here, there's a few threads. and google it, ebay seems to be the place for the best price.
It had major chatter today when i started it up. So i took a video of it. Sounds like its coming from the back of the headers. It has done this some before but not as bad.

kinda sounds like a exhaust leak.
does it go away after its all warmed up?
a vid with a rev or two would help too.
and thats no stock pulley on the sc.
Yeah it goes away after a minute. Its not a stock pulley the part no comes back to a 3.0
next time its cold re tighten your header bolts to the heads, and connections. cross over.
Alright I'll do that. Did you see the stinger stickers on it. Is that a tuner or something? Cant find anything on the web. I'll put a another video w/ a engine rev later on today. Thanks again
dont "ape" them, just make sure their not loose or missing. you can snap them bolts.
