What do you think it was? I think it was just taking power of the ignitor.

Little update, while I was sleeping my wife saw the fedex truck and chased it down. When I woke up and had a nice box sitting in my garage.
I installed the exhaust, DP, and mani.
Here's the only 2 pics I took, I'll take more once I'm done

Yes, the car is ridiculously loud.
The spool is not that bad at all, is a little bit slower then the greddy turbo but it screams up top.
