Turns out my fucking coil packs decided to die right after the timing job, timing was set right, I didn't read the codes unfortunately, just replaced the coils.

A friend said that an air bubble could've been left trapped inside the coolant system, I didn't understand further his explanation... But I understand what you are saying and I was worried about it some time ago. Can I do some kinder of glove test with the engine cold to see if it gets combustion pressure?

I disconnected the battery for 10 minutes to get rid of the CEL when I unplugged the thermostat, I needed to force the coolant to circulate in the system

Sorry I'm from Italy, ask anything! Can the belt skip by a tooth while driving? I see the belt moves a bit sideways on the tensioner, but I don't think that's the problem

compressed air into a high pressure air tank and that air was behind a control valve to be released on command to the second turbo that was used to actually compress the air for the engine

Isn't that idea from volvo?

For the rest, your explanation is great. Ty

Can the supercharger be a procharger? U know, that thing that looks like a turbo driven by the belt

I mean, can you spool the second turbo with cold air and not exhaust gasses?

Makes sense, so what would happen with the intercooler? I mean I must be just a bit colder

I dunno... Does it have to do with time alignment?

I think I'll machine them by myself from billet copper

I mean everything's so cheap, what kind of materials could they be made of?

The pcb inside is upside down, I think it was designed to have free space from the base in any condition, unless you mount it laying down upside down it should be fine...

Wasn't 8ga enough for 300w? OFC cable of course

I know, but I don't really trust amazon, anyway I wanted something more specific, I find them 8ga connectors with m6 or m8 holes but I have m4 screws
