yeah so, im on the highway and i gun it and the car pulls so friggen hard.
then i look down at my boost guage and the needle is hitting the pin just past the 20 psi mark. so im like WTF! and let off the gas, i get off the highway and pull up to a light so i can go across the street into a parking lot to pop the hood and check whats going on. at the light i hear nasty loud sounds, hard to discribe, sounded like it was coming from the block. so i pop the hood and check it out, apparently my boost controller line cracked off. so i was running full max boost it was nuts. so i fixed the line by cutting the crackeded part off just so i can get to work. (i fixed it later with brand new fuel line rubber, good stuff) start the car back up and i hear that sound again. turns out i blew the gasket between the turbo and the manifold right out. probly a good thing since it was less air spooling the turbo already at 20 psi. but w/e the engine seems fine no noise other than the exhaust leak. and the funny thing is the car was nuts at 20psi now i want that power all the time lol. so yeah. this only makes me want to put a larger turbo on... (with supporting mods, yes i know everything i need to do, not just slap a turbo on) yeah.... end of story. -------------------- |
