So I picked up a Turbo '01 a year or so back and am in the process of moving the turbo over to my 2007 and getting the '01 back to stock. I move all of the following from the '07 (which ran fine before all of this):
- In tank pump
- Throttle bodies
- Injectors
- Fuel rail
- Oil cooler
- Vacuum lines and sensors
- Stock air box (small airbox mod)
- K&N Filter
- Stock exhaust
I removed the PCIII, PCII, Hahn map sensor 'fooler', and MPS quick shifter control box. For all practical purposes the bike should be stock with the exception of the cut forks, lowering links, and a few cosmetic odds and ends.
Once I got everything moved over the bike pretty much fired right up, but when I took it for a ride I noticed I was losing power on the highway at cruising RPMs. I got it home but now at low RPMs when I pull out it tries to die unless I rev up to 3k+. The bike will idle but if you listen close it sounds a bit rough. There's also a flicker in the gauge lights at low RPM which I'd thought was a bad rectifier since the connector was all but melted, but now just replaced that and it's still there. I ran through the checks for the stator and it passed with flying colors. I think the flicker and the running rough are not related since the flicker was there when I got it and it ran without issue.
So all that being said, is there something I might be missing that someone would have done to prep it for turbo/track that would cause me this kind of issue now that I'm stock? When I got it the oil pan had been 'shaved' which made me wonder if anything might have been done inside/above. Like maybe I'm starving it for oil at low RPMs and causing damage? :unhappy: Is there perhaps something that I moved over from the '07 that isn't compatible with the '01 and is likely causing my rough running? Some stuff I've been trying in the meantime:
- Was worried that small airbox mod might cause issues on stock so put PCIII back in and put in DynoJet supplied map for aftermarket air filter and bolt on cans. No change
- Realized I hadn't changed the plug gaps back for non-turbo so put them at .030. No change
Appreciate any direction anyone can supply. I'm kind of stumped here.
