Socks Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 whip your air filter off... see if there is any play in the turbine shaft... if there is loads.. that'll be your problem...also if youve upped the boost.. double check the entire boost route... jubliee's might not be up to 1bar of boost and may have developed a leak!if your still having issues. get bvack to us! but try these first x Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Can you hear any high pitch noises? I would jack the car up, check the Intercooler checkclamps / silicone joiners, look for any split's or loose parts!Also check your Manifold for any cracks!Report back!

enots Posted May 13, 2011 Author Share Posted May 13, 2011 no extra noise indicating a boost leak which is why i'm stumped lol if it was the turbo would it still boost to 0.6 bar normally or wouldn't it just be shagged lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

enots Posted May 13, 2011 Author Share Posted May 13, 2011 JUst a thought but could it be my dawes device mbc has failed causing it to only boost to what the actuator is set at? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chris H Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Could be dude, make sure the actuator's not stuck open too Quote Link to post Share on other sites
