ok i will see if i can find a socket that size, hopefully it is the spark plugs and not fuel pump. maybe the plugs are roasted.

The gas pump issue is something the dealer can fix.

The other issue... How much boost are you running, and what size injectors do you have? Are you running a Boost-a-pump or just a stock Fuel pump?

Gut reaction on what you have said so far.. is Fuel starvation, likely from a fuel pump dieing... but that being said, could be other things as well.

will the dealer fix the fuel pump for free? its not a recall. i went out and bought a scanner that is C/A/N compliant. so i hook it up and it says camshaft position sensor bank 1. the connector is bad. im ordering a new one.

if the car is still under warranty, there's a chance that
the dealership will replace the fuel pump, if they find it
to be faulty

that's interesting about the sensor, gotta love scan tools
