Starting maybe 2 days ago, I noticed this. If I go WOT, the power drops off at ~4500 RPM. I plan on taking it to my mechanic tommorow, but if any can help me out to fix it myself that would be great. The turbo is fine as I hear it spooling well and my guage reads ~22psi. Yet, that power is not making it back to my drivetrain. Where should I be looking for a loose hose, cracked part, etc?
If I am partial throttle, there is no issue. But if my foot is to the ground, then there is an issue. If I am maybe 3/4 throttle, I can reach 7000RPM and have smoothe power all the way through. But if I go WOT, there feels as if the power is just being spewed into the atmosphere once I reach ~4500RPM, but the power is still there. Just not reaching the engine and the RPMs still climb as if (not as if, that is what it is) the power from the turbo is not being redistributed back into the engine. Where should I start looking?
Thanks!
