    Turbo HelP??

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    So went KO4 three-four weeks ago. Everything went wrong. Posted before about the GPOPSHOP turbo. Got it fixed, was running great. Then the other day a heard a little clinking (metal on metal) sound. Found out today it was the bracket for the down pipe. (so thats fixed) BUT my turbo is making alot of "AIR" sound. It's spooling up but seems like the air is going everywhere. We checked all hoses and connections. Nothing loose.

    So what could be wrong ---- N75 valve
    Air leak where
    Not fully botled to exhaust man.
    Is something wrong with MAF
    Turbo Bad ALREADY
    Wategate stuck open
    Really confused As of right now it is running good and trying to pull but not boosting like it was. (haven't gotten to put on PODI yet) so don't know what is boosting at. Seemed to run better with MAF off, today?

    CAN ANY ONE HELP ME?

    Install the gauge and then itll give people a better idea. I dont understand how you can do turbo mods and not have the gauge installed. It might all be in your head

    Ok so we put a gauge on today. It's boosting at 19-20 psi. And spiking at 21psi. So we have boost. But still seems like there is a leak or something wrong with the REVO. Thinking DV. Maybe. and found an exhaust leak mid way down. looks like hen they took off down pipe they didnt put it back on right. Drove much better today. So i don't know where to go from here.

    So your holding 20 pounds without a drop... Thats good. See its already in your head.

    Why dont you start doing easy stuff like doing a maintenance on your DV.
