Why don't you guys add to the Swap FAQ or make another? The one on this site is lame, jumbled in with html and doesn't go into details other than 'swap your sensors over'.. I personally think there are a couple more tricks than that.

Well..after looking around...figured out it is the turbo. Time for a rebuild...

better than a whole frickin motor.

that's good news. if you don't have a place locally that can do it you might want to check out cheapturbo.com, they rebuilt mine and it came back looking brand new.
