ok i un hooked the venom and the car runs worse. i went back to the shop and they say they dont know waht they did so i cant figure it out. is there diffrent settings for the tps sensor or is it just a one way fits all like the distributer?? i think i have the vacume lines fixed but my vacume booster for my brakes when plugged into the intake makes my idle jump really high up in the 3500 rpm range so i keep it unplugged. my brakes stil work fine so I figure ill roll with that for now untill i can figure it out. as far as the timing i checkd the mechanical timing at the crank and the ignition timing and its all fine. i just dont know where tdc is at for the skunk 2 cam gears. this is a huge headace. the car has lots of power now as I have played with the cam gears but it has really really bad miss fires. i replaced the cap rotor wires (which are nology and not cheap) pluggs both to hotter and colder pluggs and nothing seems to work. no matter where i put the ignit. timing it still miss fires. so now i have 2 options slap on the turbo as the motor is now and hope things correct them selves or yank the motor and dropp in a jdm B16. another question is on the jdm motor i have (which i was gonna stroke and build the lving crap out of) came with a silver box but the motor in my car did not do I need it could that be my problem. I dont know what the box is or what it does but I think someone told me its some type of resistor box or somthing Im not shure its been a while. thank you all for your help it is greatly appreciated.
