question about aa kits

[Stricklybmw]

i have a question about aa kits. do they use a gasket from the turbo to the down pipe and from the manifold to the turbo because i thought they do but i didn't get one
also has anyone had trouble with the car idling up and down. is that because the o2 sencor is garbage or what else could it be
tanx for any input

It can be a bad o2 sensor and also check the hfm make sure the arrow is pointed to the right way.

i really think it is the o2 sencor i'll buy one on monday and then i'll see what happens

There should be a gasket between the turbo and manifold, but not between the turbo and downpipe. Your best bet is to just call AA and find out for sure.

i did call them and they said i didn't need it. but all they guys that i know that have turboed cars such as hondas have a gasket. now when you buy the kit. comes a parts list and it dosen't list turbo gasket.

manifold to turbo is a machined fit, no gasket

[KLEAR]

so is turbine to down pipe..no gasket

Sounds like you might have a vac leak somewhere.

i think it's the 02 because it only dose it when is warm. haven't changed the 02 because the dealer has it on backorder

No gasket needed between turbo and manifold, no gasket between turbine and down pipe.
