Fitment issues. I'll get another manifold down the line, to make a long, very long story short, the manifold was constructed placing the turbo between the two center runners, which brings the turbo over about 3 inches, what a pain in my ass. I just got fed up and welded the stock manifold for a gate.

The car skipped timing, 2* advanced on the intake cam.

I didn't even notice the car skipped timing, I wasn't getting on it at all tonight because with the new fuel pump it's running super rich. After looking over the datalogs it happed when the car was at 36% throttle so I know it wasn't something I did.

Upon further inspection I realized the top timing cover was cracked from the inside. So I pulled the cover off, and found a m6 10mm bolt that looks like it snapped somewhere and founds it's way into my timing belt, causing the belt to skip two teeth.

Luckily the car runs/drives fine other than the pure lack of power, and huge loss in vacuum. Usually on idle I see 10inches/hg after it skipped timing I only saw 2inches/hg. That alone had me worried until I figured out why.

No worries though, I'm going to rip it apart tomorrow, get a new belt and replace everything once again.

I didn't think it was even possible. I would have probably just dropped the subframe to do it. lol

Yeah, i unbolted the north south bar from the core support and lowered it down to it's lowest point. It was a PITA.
