lol... I used the pressure washer thing at a local car wash. I don't do the drive through one, just the hose w/ the various cleaning stuff. And yeah I was pretty aggressive with the water on the bumper.

Anyway it just got me thinking. I'm going to go out right now and look at the code... back in 5mins or so

Whatever the case may be I'll be driving like a grandma until I get my tune.

P0244 Turbocharger Wastegate Solenoid 'A' Range/Performance.

And if I'm not mistaken, yes that is simply overboost. Well, I'll just have to wait until I get my tune to have that sorted out. Granny driving.. COMMENCE!

Found a thread w/ a similar situation as mine: http://www.iwsti.com/forums/general/...-flashing.html

He has a CAI and a catless dp, and stage 2 flash and that's when he got the code lol *sigh*

what map are you running? Reset your ecu drive around normally for a day or two and should be fine. I got my overboost early morning when car was still warming up, in high gear, high rpms, now i know better.

btw who is gonna do your protune?

I'm an infant in the world of tuning my car so bear with me. I learn as I go--at least I did throw that as a guess out there.

Thanks for the info.

you also might wanna look into getting a prodrive boost control solenoid before you go for your protune. I know im adding one in now that im stage 2 also and will be getting protuned soon also.

sysfailur · 10-23-2008, 10:46 AM

Also.... is this not the best view in months you've seen from the driver seat of an STi?

This?

RallySportDirect.com - Prodrive 3-Port Boost Control Solenoid

Hmmm I'll have to see. Maybe I can pick one up.

at the sign of cheap gas. i filled my car up yesterday and my jaw dropped when i saw the price, $2.86. i started to do a little dance before i realized how silly i look.

wow you didn't wait time modding the car, looks good.

looks like they moved things around a bit on the VF-48 in our 08 STis, looks like Cobb might need to make some tweeks to their design.

and yes that one nut on the bottom of the downpipe is a PITA to reach and properly tighten down. at least you didn't get the TXS downpipe, that thing is huge and makes it even harder to get on.

car looks good, i can't wait til i have the $$ to catch up with my 08.
