RE: boost problem
k heres what happend...i was drivin around kinda drivin hard steppin on it and all a sudden this huge *** noise happens...like i dont know a PSSSHT thingy and i didnt know what it was and i kinda thought my radio did soemthin but then it kept doin it and it is constant but its really loud when i kick the turbo in.. and when its idling i can put in the clutch and it will stop hissing...
i do not know much about forced induction..so i dont know if the exhaust smell is part of the turbo or if i F*cked somethin up drivin too...
but the sound seems to be comming by the front drivers wheel...but it also kinda sounds like it right by the throttle body

RE: boost problem
do you have an air filter for the incoming part of the impellers on the turbo? Ive heard of things going into the impellers and ****in things up, but thats real iffy, i would start it up go under the hood and give it gas (just lift the throttle back on your intake) than you will be right there to better hear a possible leak, try that repost once you have done that and we'll check other things out, And if you really need help ill have my uncle get on this thing and help you, he is A+ when it comes to turbo's and s/c's but he will prolly make you make a video of the problem but let me know just trying to help you out i know how it feels to be saying WHAT DID I **** UP its a bad feeling but repost once you have done it
Edit: where is your turbo located?? also does it sound like you might have an exhaust leak along with the loud hissing of the turbo problem???

RE: boost problem
u said does it sound like u have an exhaust leak along with the turbo problem...and i do...what does this mean?
ive heard that my exhuast manifold could be leaking? would this take 2 PSI outta my boost? my gauge will only read about 4 and i use to read 6 im pretty sure
