Boost leak?
Hello everyone new to the forum and scene in need of some help. I Recently bought a 92 eg hatch. It has a b18c bottom b16 head and a garrett t3/t4 turbo setup. It was running fine for the past week and a half. I even drove it home about 260 miles after purchased. It started acting up a bit last weekend. Seemed to stutter a bit while accelerating off the line. Then I noticed it didn't seem to have as much get up and go as before. Also noticed a hissing sound like a leak. The car wasn't building any boost so I did a boost leak test and found a couple of leaks and fixed them. Runs better and builds boost just not as quick as before. It still seems to leak a bit from the compressor housing and and somewhere behind the engine by the firewall. I am ordering a rebuild kit for the turbo and can't seem to locate the leak by the firewall any help is much appreciated thanks.
