(Thread Starter) |   Not Ranked : 0 score  Looking to buy a MSP, but something wrong with turbo? First off, this is my first post on MSF, so hello to all! Hopefully I can get some good feedback.  I just went to look at an MSP earlier today. Really clean looking, and I brought my mechanic friend to see if the car is worth buying. Friend says it isn't because the turbo starts spooling at around 5.5k rpm, which is obviously something serious. What could be causing this problem? Is it a cheap fix or do I have to change the turbo completely... I don't possess this car, but I really want this car. If I need to, please let me know if I should post the ad for this car. It will include all pics of the car. Thanks a lot! |

(Thread Starter) | Not Ranked : 0 score Alright, I'm back with more info on the car. He says that they pulled a code detecting O2 sensor bank 1 sensor 1. They say the replaced it and fixed the problem, spools up fine. But now I'm gonna head up there today and see if it actually fixed the problem. |
