Default AU mont running like crap!!

Sigh...

I have removed all the turbo gear off my AU and reset the computer. Currently as it stands it has the battery in the boot, and a catch can setup. That basically all that is different to what it was before i did all the useless work..

The car is now running like absolute crap! The belt is screaming like crazy.. so loud.. so annoying. So that will be changed shortly..

The next problem is the car is starting too stall on idle and occasiaonly when slowing down for intersetions / lights etc. It looses revs then dies.. Not fun.

It is possible that it is the battery in the boot, but im not sure. So i will be moving this back up the front as there is no reason to have it back there.

Also it is blowing a little bit of smoke now when i give it a bit of stick. I am going to re-plumb the catch can setup to try and stop this from happening.

There is also a ticking noise coming from the intake manifold. I replaced the gasket for it not long ago and the blots where done up tight enbough, but still managing to tick..

Any suggestions guys?
