Someone came onto my forum I own and grabbed my eye with a thread (damn trolls, lol), so I registered for S&G, and never really made any traffic...now here I am. I intend to make myself known there, but not nearly as much as I am here, lol.

Ok Well early morning test are here ...I took off 1 charge pipe the readings on the boost gauge dropped maybe to like -14 or if any. So somehow I do have a leak. Ive triple checked my lines for cracks etc ...I have a nasty leak on my exhaust manafold and my downpipe ...I dont see this lossing vaccuum though ? All my charge pipes seem to be fine...I took off the TB pipe and reved the motor and a decent amount of air came out for the low rpm rev. Any ideas now guys ?
hows the bov? Being stuck open or something. Also check if the internal wastegate is closing all the way. where is the exhaust leak? Manifold/turbo area maybe? what about leaking between head and manifold?
Bov seems to be working ...I had a tiny exhaust leak between the manafold an dhead ..fixed it ..and still have one on my downpipie ..Check out my most recent post ...Im starting to think I have some serious problems with this turbo .
