Hey everyone. I have a red top in my s13. I just recently replaced my t25 turbo that was blown with a Gt2871r. After weeks of problems getting it to fit and dealing with a huge oil leak this car is ready to go. I have noticed though that when I start it up from a cold start it idles as if it's missing. If I Rev it to maybe 3000 rpm real quick it then idles normal. My vacuum on the boost gauge is around 20 or 25. I'm not sure if this may be a possible vacuum leak or if for some reason the new turbo may have my plugs fouling or I have leaky injectors or what. It doesn't start rough and doesn't die it just seems like it has a miss when its cold. Suggestions?

Did you change anything other than turbo? MAF, ecu, etc? Most likely boost leak tho.

Boost leak is the first thing I'd check. But other then that you should be looking to upgrade your fuel system with a 255 walbro fuel pump, bigger injectors, and a tune.

Sorry it's taken me a while to respond back. I have not installed anything other than the turbo at this time. I have a 255 walboro pump already but yeah I will be looking into replacing the injectors and getting a z32 maf as well as a tune.. I assume to do a leak test u basically spray around with carb cleaner to find a leak?
