i parked my car earlier today and went to sleep and havent touched it for like 14+ hours. i started up the car and it sounded weird. i looked at the greddy boost controller, it was at -70ish w/o anything throttle. that seemed weird. it was idling at like 1300rpm. i has been idling for 1k+ for a few days and ignored it. it been sitting for half a day i expected it to idle kinda high. i tried to step on the throttle a little and it bogged out it. i started it up again and popped the hood. i looked around and seen smoke from the elbow/turbo area. i saw that the pcv hose to the block was split open. i assumed that the oil dripped on the downpipe and was burning off. i tried to give it some gas again and it died. this time it wouldnt start back up. i tried to start the car with wot and it wouldnt start. i thought it could be flooded. so i turned off the fuel pump and it started up but i had to turn on the fuel pump for it to keep idle. i would keep idle. i replaced the damaged pcv hose and it was the same problem. i checked my intercooler piping all of seem to be intact. everytime i start it i have to turn off the fuel pump to start and turn the pump back on to keep it idling. it was working perfectly fine before i parked the car. oh yea i went on the touge run that night, but after that i was able to drive to drink 30miles away and drive back. any ideas what could it be? any help would be appreciated.
