vibratiing, rattling front passenger side?????

[jacobsen]

Just did the turbo swap to k04 and the front passenger side like right by the inside air filter is vibrating/rattling. Any idea what it is?

checked every thing under the passenger side hood area. Must be exhaust, it gets worse when you let your foot off the gas and the engine starts to struggle. Or when there is a lot of vibration like when you take off from a stop in 1st. or bog into 3. It's a vibration sound... sigh...*

I think the apr exhaust is vibrating against the transmission mount. It's pretty much touching... Is tehre a difference in size or length of the k04-k03? This is a Borg warner from ecs... Didn't have this issue til I swapped turbos.

what the hell... Disconnected the battery and put a bolt through the transmission/exhaust bracket since it was missing. ...well problem solved...
