You know the two 951's that you have for sale on Autotrader? Are they the same car? The price is the same and it looks like they are the same in the pictures, but I cannot tell. Thanks!

Try running with the tps unplugged. Drive normal and stay off boost while doing so. Idle will vary, but if problems go away, then i'd replace the tps.

still seems fishy--same type of posts as alina--same (new) city as alina--ketchum/sun valley idaho

as for help--do what sox suggested in the turbo forum--or what robm suggested here, then report back the findings.
