Default Please help.

I just bought my srt today and honestly didn't even look at the boost gauge until later tonight. At wot the boost only reaches 4 lbs. So obviously this is a pretty damn big leak. Anybody know where to look at? I'm taking it back to the dealer on monday to fix it but I was just wondering if it could be an easy fix to do tomorrow.

what are the mods, what does your boost gauge sit when the car is off, check for boost leaks there is a how to in the how-to section, check to make sure the intercooler pipes are good.

just go over all the vac lines and make sure all of the connectors are ziptied .

if you want take pictures of the engine bay making sure to get everywhere in the engine bay and post it up.... I might be able to tell you most of your mods just from looking at the pictures.

looks like the car had a big fmic at one point and was modded and put back to stock.

the only thing i can see that was done was motor mount inserts, coil pack heatshield and removed the top of the airbox.

What exactly are the motor mount inserts? I know I heard some people talking bout swapping out the motor mounts for solid ones. Does that have anything to do with that or is it totally different.

in this picture you can see it.... it is the red thing on the side of the engine. those are inserts (the red part). Helps with wheel hop.
