See there you go.

 

Good news...change them both...

 

Nice find, hope that's all.
Honestly, having some issues with the car right off the start isn't such a bad thing. It forces you to really understand how these cars work and in the end can save you lots of money by doing things yourself.
And it's fun to troubleshoot.

 

Had this issue it was only when I start it for the first time of the day. It was one of the diverters leaking after doing a mity vac test on the bov. Took me 6 months to find it.

 

was my guess too, straight from the p-nut gallery. some sticky lil suckers, old wg's or dv's are! nice to hear you got it sorted! now, on to the next ..never mind.. enjoy the car now! congrats. its pretty rewarding once sorting out issues on these cars. we live in boost tests and vac leak central.

 

oh, you're saying it's time for me to upgrade the turbos?????

 

me?!? nah, just sticky/maladjusted ( in my case(s) wg's are so common re boost issues that its usually a good first place to "look". but maybe you weren't talking to me anyway lol. I'm here all life

good news is, again, its one less thing to worry about!

 

My logic was now that I have this issue fixed I should probably invest in new turbos...


Actually curious to see how the car feels now, gotta think it was down a significant bit of power with this issue.

 

if you haven't already? make sambott's acquaintance here ( @bydesignauto ). he'd kick for me for saying this, but the guy would take your call on xmas day if you needed help.

but don't test that lol

 

Amen to that, I can't tell you guys how many times Sam and I talked with regards to my exhaust, tune, wastegate adjustments, DVs, ABS/PSM light, etc...He's definitely on the holiday card list ;-)

He's got me well sorted on his custom Cobb Mafless tune and the car has never run better, based on seat of the pants and the log files.

Hot Rod Guy, I'm just across the Bay and am around throughout the holidays...

 

I'm actually down in LA for the holidays, and may be giving Sam a call for a kline setup while i'm down there

Which exhaust did you do?

 

kline! w/ decats.. from sam... of course!

just dont tell him i said anything. i think he reads this stuff lol

 

Haha thank you gentlemen!
Lines always open guys and I have inventory. Anytime Hot Rod!

 

Kline of course...2.5"with 200 cell cats...

 

We def need to meet up when i'm back in town, would love to hear it (that said I may pull the trigger before )
