Skimmy237 Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Fit my hybrid turbo lastnight and the car has next to no power ?! Can anyone tell me what to do or check ? My standard turbo had alot more power It's only coming up one light on the turbo bit on the dash and that's about 4k rpm ??Any ideas Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TurboTobz Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 It's not making full boost, check for leakss in intercooler pipe work, could also be actuator related among other things but i'd check them first. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Skimmy237 Posted September 8, 2013 Author Share Posted September 8, 2013 So check intercooler pipes ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TurboTobz Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 yeah, did you use your old actuator? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sefton-EP91 Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 I would check for vacuum leaks mate, check that your intake isn't blocked if your meshed, check for cracked manifold/downpipe, intercooler pipes split, intercooler split/cracked check for all the obvious things first, failing that turbo could be knackerd Hope you get it sorted mate Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Skimmy237 Posted September 8, 2013 Author Share Posted September 8, 2013 Turbo has just been rebuilt dude ! So it's not that, and wee never took much off but I will check it anyway and noting is cracked dude 😟 it's a nightmare I'm ready to give up Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Skimmy237 Posted September 9, 2013 Author Share Posted September 9, 2013 No, no boost gauge but only one light comes on on the dash so it's running low boost I know that 😟 and it comes on at like 4k rpm and like 1.0 corsas are beating me hahah Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JayJ Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 You can drive it, but don't leave it leaking for weeks or months haha. Yes, if the gasket is missing compressed air will leak out and pressure won't build up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Skimmy237 Posted September 9, 2013 Author Share Posted September 9, 2013 Think that could be the problem because the gasket is fucked eh Quote Link to post Share on other sites
