I guess this what happens when you hear noise coming from the front of the engine. I first heard this noise when it I turned off the car and it was making this grinding noise (yes car off) lol. Then it started to heat up and make louder noise. Finally took it off and inspected it. And them are the results.

Whatever you do, DON'T SNORT IT!! what do you attribute that to? Is it possible that the CAS created it? Or is it from????

Correct. Why wouldn't it be damaged? No wonder I couldn't set the timing if it depended on my life

LOL!!! I'll try not to

Yes it from the CAS. We took it apart and we saw some small pieces of metal come from under the sensor itself (that black round thing). So yea its from there.

Thats nothing to worry about, it's just magical RB fairy dust. It gives RB's 400hp to the wheels.

Yea but since this happened its no good obviously. Right? I would think so. Anyways I have a new CAS headed my way so I'll see.

Do you guys think this is the reason why my car bogs and bogs, backfires, and finally dies after idling for 3 mins or so?

Yes it was lol.

Question...

I try to crank the car and it doesn't turn over. I have 2 batteries starting the car so I know its got enough juice. Whenever I crank WHY does air come out of my intake (connected to turbo like stock) making noise like poof poof every time the motor turns over. Any ideas?

had a machine shop set up one of our EVO6 4G63 wrong, did the same thing, ended up the intake valves weren't seating correctly.

Not to say thats your problem but was doing the same thing

Ouch... Hopefully this isn't the case cause it doesn't always do it.

That reminds me. Interior lights flickering all of a sudden means bad ground right?
