Mr. Chem Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Is it a really high pitches whistle noise that gets louder as you throttle up?You've probably popped a boost hose. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

turbominicooper Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 if there was a boost leak surely there woulld be no boost at all? no youd still get some boost as its still forcing it in at the join, its just not a tight seal Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Boylo99 Posted December 23, 2014 Author Share Posted December 23, 2014 yeah on closer inspection input shaft is fine not much play so its not that but have noticed theres no vacum from the turbo that goes to the boost controller then to the actuator so am thinking the seals on the hot side of the turbo are shagged?
