just saying with a tdo4 strapped on they could of got excited... im sure a diagnostic test will show up a fuel cut code if its running a stock ecu
compression test;
get compression tester.. its like a gauge
have car warmed up then turn off
remove king lead and efi fuse
take out one plug at the time and screw in compression tester
crank engine for 3 second or so..
take reading from tester "write it down"
go onto next plug replacing one you just did
while cranking the engine have the foot to the floor "get someone to do this"
simple enough mate..
should be around 160psi across all 4 cylinders.. if theres a differebce of -10 or +10 between readings then its still ok.. example; 160,155,150,160
if you get a reading like this; 160,155,90,160 then you would know thats theres a problem with 3rd cylinder

To me it seems very cheap for a red facelift running a td04..

There is no money out there, people are selling for what the need to get not what they want.

Seems about right for standard boost mate.
I seen it the other day too, looks like a tidy motor for the money.
