i went back out to the garage last night & took care of the vacume system.
origially didn't have any of it hooked up. but now it's all there & we're sittin here with the same resultz
The thing that is really messing with me is the GSR head on the motor (ls-vtec) coz it just changes a lot of things. I'm sure it's got to be something stupid that i'm over-looking, but i havn't figured it out yet..
someone toss me some more ideas that might trigger somethin.. thanks
