dmac · 06-07-2009, 09:30 AM

IS THIS A BOOST LEAK? MORE NOTICABLE IN 2ND, 3TH, 4TH, 5TH GEAR, WHEN I OPEN HER RIGHT UP, 4000 RPM BOOST WILL HIT 14.5 MAYBE 15 PSI THEN GO DOWN TO 12ISH N SLOWLY CREEP/HOVER BETWEEN 12 14.5 PSI, I CAN FEEL THIS WHEN IM DRIVING IT TOO, FEELS KINDA LIKE ITS LAGGING, THERES BEEN A FEW TIMES WHEN IT HASN DONE IT TOO, WHEN IT DOESNT THE CAR REALLY GOES HARD, IT MIGHT JUST BE ME BUT IT SEEMS TO DO IT MORE WHEN ITS WARMER, THE MODS I HAVE ARE STI TURBO N INTERCOOLER, TURBO BACK EXHAUST, GFB PLUM BACK/ATMOS BOV.
IF IT IS A BOOST LEAK HOW CAN I FIND THIS MY SELF? CHEERS GUYS
