Leaking Turbos
Over the last weeks I have noticed a fall off of the turbo boost. I am running stock turbos with Europipe exhaust. Currently can get no more the .3 bar. Any ideas or suggestions would be most welcome as I try to sort this out.

regards,


james

Diverter valve failure? My best guess.

thanks to all, the DV's were the culprits. Both have been replaced with aftermarkets and life is back to normal or at least where it was.

thanks
