hey i just finished turboin my 91 240sx. 370cc injectors walboro 255 fuel pump, stock maf, safc 2, stock fpr, no intercooler. took it out for a test drive and it ran good for bout 10 minutes. then it just shut off and the check engine light came on. it turns over but it wont start. i popped the hood and there was a mixture of oil and gas drippin out of the airfilter. any ideas as to what happened. also, the wastegate was used and the last guy who had it had it set to 8psi. please help

IF you got fuel and goo coming out the air filter, you have got HUGE problems.

My guess is the SAFC may have screwed something up.

8psi shouldn't be bad. I'd check the AFC for the proper settings though. at 370cc it's not too bad but oil and gas? Did you check out your valves?
