Sounds like CAS 180 out or the ECU (tuned ecu's are sketchy sometimes IMO).

can you give me a little more detail on how it could actually be 180 off? i just can't really picture how it could go in upside down when the dots line up?

edit: just saw that your in greensboro so you are more than welcome to come take a look at it if you want.

Gezz man, that sucks. I wish you weren't in Greensboro so I could come take a look man.

how do you put the CAS in? by setting the engine, and cams to TDC? and then lining everything up and doing it that way?

After disassembling my harness and pretty much re-doing every solder joint and heat shrinking it with double wall adhesive hs, checking for breaks and fixing anything else that looked mickey mouse. The harness is a bit cleaner now, anything that was removed was "REMOVED" from the wiring.

Car so far is running great and a lot stronger now.

I would suggest a harness issue.

well took off the valve cover tonight to check things out and my timing chain tensioner is broken... so the motor has to come back out to fix that and check it out to make sure it didn't tear up anything else.. also i am going to go ahead and get an adjustable fpr. which ones should i look at or stay away from?

just go ahead and get an aeromotive. Super safe and whatnot. (that's my personally opinion)

and the tensioner, thats not good, might have thrown the timing off as well, so I'm crossing my fingers.

yea i've got my fingers crossed to.. what sucks is i don't have any time to pull it back out till next week. so the chance of me driving on the 17th is looking slim.. and i've been looking at the aeromotives.. just looked at enjuku though and the isis looks identical to it. anyone have any experience with that one?

i promise an update is coming just have to find some time to sit down and write one and upload pics..

but i am getting the car aligned in a few days and really need everyones help with specs. i dont really have a clue what i should run. i should be making around 315 at the moment and have all adjustable suspension. also strictly looking for a drift alignment since i almost never drive this on the street anymore. any help with specs would be great.
