Re: Poor low end perf. when cold 700 89

1. clean throttle body.

2. check for vacuum leaks, especially at the amm to turbo intake hose. Not unusual ot have a leak or bad hose from the intercooler to the metal tube to the throttle body or at the tube to throttle body hose. Even the hose at the turbo to intercooler could be rotted by now...mine were bulged and I replaced them and added a third clamp in the middle to keep it from flexing under 15-18psi boost....
