boost leak suspected

[jay04srt4]

Almost sounds like it coming from the intercooler. like a hole. But now no boost over 8 psi, and crazy hissing sound. Suspect hot side problem. Heres the question. How you guys getting to the turbo outlet connection on the hot sidE??

Are you talking about the hot side pipe where it connects to the FMIC????

[jay04srt4]

yes i was, and i found the problem!!! Un real! Where the hot pipe goes from that rubber hose to the hard pipe, was loose and almost off. and the rubber pipe to the fmic was half off. I bought some t bolt clamps and went at it! I cant get a ratchet onto the fmic clamp though. so i re used a stock clamp with the help of a stubby screwdriver.

but I will be re clamping everything thursday.
I HIGHLY recommend checking your pipes people!!!! 27k miles and both connections loose!

I do a boost leak check at least every 2 weeks......
