(NAS) starlet ep82 Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Hi guys!as my last thread i mentioned my car was parked up for a month & regularly start it bt neva moved in a month, other day i took it for a blast & noticed car has lost power & guage showing no boost at all..mods are ct9 hybrid with screamer pipe, 0.8 bar, fmic.UPDATE Now:i have managed to find a split rubber pipe that connects to the FMIC piping so have changed this pipe & car boosts fine, BUT my external wastegate DOES NOT sound the same like before & screamer pipe dosent kick in?? waste gate sounds more of a ''echo'' noise, not like a big tsshhh (bit like a d-valve)anyone come across this before ???asapThanks!

_shaun_ Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 cant see why screamer would sound dif just because u fixed a leak on intercooler long as its still boosting 0.8 and not going any high wont be a prob tho Quote Link to post Share on other sites

_shaun_ Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 screamer sound and wastegate sound are the same ;) wastegate releases all the extra pressure from the turbo when you hit your set boost pressure down the screamer pipe so not sure what u mean by no screamer sound and diff sound from waste gate.
