So I started my car today and got tuned and drove! However I have intense vibration when boost kicks in. If I was a girl I wouldn't mind it but it's rather obnoxious any suggestions as to what this is? Or is it a normal thing

 

No that is not normal at all.

 

Yeah I thought so as well, but I have no idea where to start figuring out what it is

 

Describe the vibration.

 

The car runs smooth when not in boost when boost comes on the car vibrates I can still see out of the mirrors so its not horrendous but it is not something you can ignore

 

Check for shaft play in the turbo.

 

I will, however last time I checked it which was a few weeks ago before mounting the turbo there was none

 

Can you hear anything unusual or just feel the vibration?

 

Do you have a wide band hooked up?

 

Are your wheels spinning cause of all the turbo powa

 

I don't hear anything unusual, I do have a wideband, and yes the wheels are spinning. Previous to the turbo install we had to change the water pump and you guys know all the work req. for that. So maybe something involving water pump replacement?

 

there's nothing special inolved in water pump replacement.

you probably screwed something up

 

but it just doesnt make sense lol.

 

Mis-fire from blow out?

 

Exhaust vibrating against the subframe/tranny?

 

My guess would be this or the clutch giving up the ghost

 

without a log and video we'll be here all day

 

Driveline out of balance? Motor mounts? How much power are you making? Maybe when you're under boost your chassis is flexing causing something to become Mis-aligned and put of balance. I've driven a couple high hp miatas at the shop that under load everything kinda flexes.

 

We need logs of your driveshaft NAO!
