First of all, thanks for the tech articles. I just replaced the turbo on my sons 07. Dealer said the waste gate was causing a reduced performance code, not detected on the obd II, of course. Bought a borg replacement. Now we have very little boost. After running for 10 minutes including a short drive, cleared the obd II and no the car won't run. Any ideas?

Maybe a restricted catalytic converter?

Has the CEL come back on or any codes in the system since you cleared it and drove it? I'd go over everything and make sure you installed everything back where it needs to be. Check for vacuum leaks. To make sure we don't have 2 problems at foot here, check the battery voltage. Make sure the connection on the battery terminals is not loose. This will cause a no start.
