P2261?

Got a code today, car runs fine and makes boost fine as usual. I'm thinking turbo replacement..... It may be covered by power train warranty, but I'm probably too modded for them to cover it. Full exhaust, tune, all that.. any ideas? I'd almost rather buy a new one and install that swap back to stock again.

BNR makes a kick-ass turbo. It's a set of turbo, tune, and 42lb injectors. Can't run the turbo without the tune and bigger injectors. A little spendy, but sounds worth it. I've not done it myself. I can barely shell out the $350 for Megan Racing springs right now.

Have you done the bypass the bypass mod? A few things gone wrong with that could potentially cause that code.

Yes indeed! First round with this code, my wastegate was shot.... Last week same code again, saw your reply and decided to read visit my bypass mod and there's the vacuum line from the bottom of the manifold just chillin a few inches from the barb. Super glued that turd in place.

So, I ordered a new turbo anyway.... DHL dropped off today. It's a Dorman unit, but for $385 overnight shipped I'm not upset. https://ibb.co/dP8c5G
