Boost Project Problem..
Alright, so I finally got everything hooked up and tried to start it last night. Well, it started up and ran pretty good, a little rough, but that's to bo expected considering I haven't turned it on in 5 days. I was leaking some oil because we forgot to torque the friggin manifold to the adaptor plate[:@], but that's not my issue..
My issue is this, when I noticed the oil leak, I went to turn the car off, and it wouldnt turn off. The son of a bitch just kept running, even when I turned the key all the way back, AND pulled it out. I'm sure you can imagine the sense of panic I felt...Lori said the look on my face was priceless.....smartass. I did finally get it to shut down, but I had to turn the key forward for a split second and let it kill itself. I now know I can just pull the ecu fuse, but in my panic, it was the only thing I could think of..
Anywho, has anyone ever had this happen?!? I talked to a buddy of mine and he said it happened to him, and that it has something to do with the injector wiring (he too had an EK). I'm going to explore the wiring today, but if anyone else has any suggestions, PLEASE post 'em up. Thanks guys!
......it hurts to be this close to being boosted, and have stupid **** like this happen [sm=headbang.gif]

weird.......i doubt it has anything to do with inj wiring since the main relay controls the fuel pump as well as spark so obviously the main relay is still seeing power.. id try swapping the ign switch to a known good one.

Oh, and it wasn't an oil leak, I was shooting fuel out the front of my exhaust[:@]

...sorry, couldnt resist
The fuel was falling straight down onto the floor, and I cleaned it off the turbo really well before trying to crank it again. Plus I had my trusty fire extinguisher with me
