Is this what a massive post turbo boost leak looks like?

I'm almost 100% certain this A/F Learning is the result of a loose intercooler hose.

 

Can anyone confirm this and let me know what the values should be?

 

I'm new to this.

 

Thanks.

yes. you might want to do a low pressure (about 5 psi) boost leak test to find it. values should be as close to 0% as possible, but under +- 5% is considered ok.

here's a recent similar thread.

Gotcha, thank you much. I did have a large boost leak.

 

I have just loaded back the stock bin on my ecu in anticipation of an opensource tune. I will drive easy and check those again.

 

Thanks!

It was an intercooler pipe. I forgot to tighten it down. Reconnected and the car ran fine. I just messed with the tune so I'll log some miles and pull lv again. If you guys want I'll post the new LV on this thread.

 

Intake gaskets were changed a few months ago. Turbo inlet still stock but tested ok recently.
