Well I have problems w/boost leaking out, the kit I have is the Turbonetics kit and I hear boost just leaking out. Please any info will help out w/this problem. I think that the problem is the wastegate, but I may be wrong so help w/this problem. <U></U> http://www.intercrewautosalon.com

 

If it's as loud as you say, you should be able to feel an exhaust leak with your hand if it's coming out of your wastegate. Double-check all your vacuum lines. Could be one of them popped off. Most likely, if you can't boost much it's an exhaust leak.

 

Well we've checked every pipe and every vacuum hose, etc. but no leaks found. I'm going to replace the wastegate this week so we'll find out if that was it, but I'll double check everything on the kit to make sure, thanks for the info thou. <U></U> http://www.intercrewautosalon.com

 

it is the wastegate. if it is a turbonetics wastegate then that is the problem. my friend has one on his car and he hasn't even driven 1000 miles yet and it is already leaking. he is gonna replace it with the hks one that is good up to 450 hp.

 

Can you be more specific?
What kit are you running?
How many lbs is the wg set for, and what does your boost gauge read?
Open or closed loop wg?

Well we thought the same b/c personally Turbonetics makes the worst wastegate out on the market. So already going to order another and see if it works, thanks for the help. <U></U> http://www.intercrewautosalon.com
