Default Dance needle! Dance like no one is looking.

So for the last week my car has not been hitting it's usual 17. Once upon a time it would spike at 21 and creep until it held at 17.


Today it started a fun new habit. In 5th gear going about 35/40 I will drop the pedal to wot to see what the max boost is ( you know what I mean) now, once it gets up to 15 is violently jumps between 10 and 15 psi. I am not throwing any cels and everything "looks" good.

sign of a bad waste-gate or n75?


I hope it means my turbo is shot so I can upgrade .


So list of possible culprits preeze.


Thanks

Default That means you have a boost leak...probably N75 hoses or N75

Replace the hoses if there stock.
