Okay, long story short two dudes thought the other one tightened that clamp. And so on my maiden voyage in my newly SR powered hatch, the intercooler piping came off the turbo first time I hit boost coming up a hill. not a huge problem, it ran like crap all of a sudden, huge cloud of unburned fuel out the back. Pull over and my chase truck tows it home. The problem lies in this: Now when I go to start it, it idles really low bucks like crazy and then dies. Anything bad come from drivin with an open intercooler piping? I'm going to check for codes tonight when get home and reset the ECU, other than that I don't have any clue where to start. Checked all my sensors and nothing came unplugged.
