    Son of a.... boost leak..

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Ok so I got a stock DV to replace mine about a week ago. I did this while I waited to get my aftermarket one. I got the DV for free from my cousin, put it, no issues at all. When I got mine out it was hilariously shot, but anyways now I have a issue. I idle at -10hg and boost spikes at 9psi and holds at 5psi....

    This is a boost leak correct? Also I have a CEL for the MAF input as low (p0102). I'm thinking I may have missed a hose to reconnect, any idea's where to start. I got my new DV (piston) yesterday and plan to put it in tomorrow so hopefully I'll find a hose hanging loose.

    Also I did the airbox mod at the same time, so to change the DV I removed nearly everything above it, the entire box, tip and a lot of the hose connections. I replaced the hoses on the n75 with silicone ones as well as many other hoses, as many as I had enough hose for on my way to the DV.

    I'd check and make sure you tightened things up good.

    Fixed, installed the 007 today, found the "snorkel" tube was loose/not connected.
