okay so this is what happened friday night..

me and a few people decided to swap my turbo at 12AM.. we also changed my intake and put in a 2g maf.

it took about 3 hours and it all was perfect untill we started the car.. we crossed two of the wrong wires in the maf and it caused my engine light to go on.. we drove to the diner at 4 in the morning after we rewired it about 3 times and when i turned the car off when we got there my car was pissing out coolant like crazy.. obviously it was because the tubes werent put back on tight enough so that was a easy fix.

today day my engine light came back on and i hooked up up to alexs (blackvr4) palm pilot nd it said it was the temperature sensor so we had to rewire it AGAIN.. it was running fine then all the sudden today it was breaking up and it feels like the car is just not moving.. we hooked it up the to palm again and its registering at 43 counts of knock normally driving it and not beating on it.. if i floor it the car just doesnt even go anywhere, you hear the turbo spool it just doesnt move=[ we are in the process of figuring it out.. we are going to replace the knock sensor .. if anyone has any idea of what else it could be feel free to tell me.

here are some pics of the adventure haha
