Okay so I bought a 1990 TT a few weeks ago, I got it for $1300... That says something lol.
Now that it runs it will only get up to around 4,500 rpm then it like bogs and won't go anyfurther like it's hitting a revlimiter at 4,500-5,000 RPM- only when -driving it in neutral it goes right up 7,250 rpm
-It's a 5 speed
-It boosts up to 8-9 psi before it starts cutting out so it's not in safe mode
-Also the ECU throws code 55 so that's no problem
-It has test pipes
-I believe Both turbos are bad the passanger side is knocking and blowing a lot of smoke (I'm getting new ones soon) the driver side just blows a lil smoke
-all new plugs correct gap
- I played with the TPS that didn't effect
-I might delete the prvr soon
Anyway after I got it i got the injectors cleaned and refurbished for the mean time it runs on all 6 cylinders now. When I pulled the plenum I did all the deletes
AIV, Egr solenoid, Carbon Canister. And under plenum coolant bypass. The EGR delete was done before I got the car.. Don't know if it was done right but it was done. So it starts right up and runs good besides all the noise and smoke from the turbos, but when I get on it it goes to say 8psi and like 5k rpms and kinda cuts like it's starving for fuel or something. It has a new fuel filter and new lines.
What do you think it is? I mean I know driving it with bad turbos is not good but I had to test it as this is what I found.
