It will be great if you can do that. My friend doesn't really know anything about it, so do I. When do you think you might have time?? OK let me tell me him to go to Auto Parts and find out what the code is and I'll let you know. Tank You.

check to make sure the BOV is closing completely and not sticking open. Happened to my Greddy RS. Pull off the Recirc tube and check to see the valve is closed completely.

Well I think he bought it for $7500.00. Is that too much?? The car has also Full Tein Suspension, HKS Full Exhaust, HKS Turbo Timer, Rays Wheels, the interior is in really good conditions and also the exterior. I will get in touch with Hybrid AWD. Thanks for all the help.

Doesn't help much if you don't provide more information regarding the symptoms. 92k miles doesn't mean anything, my stocker had 130k on it with very little shaft play.

Well the description is not great but my guess is either boost leak, stuff hooked up wrong, or blown turbo. I've seen some wierd shit caused by blown turbos before. I certainly hope your friend isn't driving it with lines disconnected.
