Yeah that's what mine was doing, and then it would not run no more.

This could be dangerous, your fuel pump starts cutting off, and if you are boosting, you will have no gas, the boom.

On the other hand, i gots the hookup

I started thinking, and I remembered when my brother was more into Subarus, he wanted to find an XT-6, AWD 5speed, his dream car in college, I ended up buying another one those were fun
Anyways, he bought his car from this guy who turned out to be the only mechanic for Classic Subaru in Orlando, so I called him up, and sure enough he had one laying around, he took of a car with 3k miles, a warranty repair that turned out to be something else, so this thing is pretty much new. He also has a 5k turbo, but it's the factory wrx one, a brand new, well rebuilt tranny, an whole WRX engine, a bunch of subaru heads, and parts, well anything.

The bitch is that I drove all the way from haines city, to bithlo by the track to his house to pick it up. I mean no problem I'm saving like $100 bucks plus shipping and wait time. Here's the problem I came back home, took the old one out and it has a different plug , I mean it only took 5 min to take off, but , so I call him up and he says, I'm sorry I had to and gave you the wrong one I got the other one here.

God Damnit!!! He kinda wanted me to go all the way back there to swap for the right one. I told him no. So I got him to meet me 1/2 way in kissimmee. I wanted the car for tonight, but oh well, it should be rolling around tomorrow
