MaasaiWarrior Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 I'm stumped trying to find either a boost leak or vacuum leak on my car, wondering if I could get any incite from anyone here. I'm hitting boost no problem all the way up to 12 psi (i hit a max of 17 usually) then the car just goes into a huge hesitation, I had my intercooler off this morning and checked my vacuum lines and replaced by blue tee (been meaning to do that for a while) I didn't find any cracked hoses or things completely off, anyone else has had this problem and can give me any incite to find what's causing it? I'm on the factory intercooler and have been thinking about swapping it out with either an aftermarket or getting the bulletproof kit... 08 Spec B, insta: @08_spec_b, 10 SH Forester insta: @shfozzy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaasaiWarrior Posted August 29, 2015 Author Share Posted August 29, 2015 I'm on a Cobb stage 2 tune, has been running really well. No wooshing noises at all, everything sound pretty much normal. I've always had a light whistle after boosting so that's nothing new to me Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 08 Spec B, insta: @08_spec_b, 10 SH Forester insta: @shfozzy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaasaiWarrior Posted August 31, 2015 Author Share Posted August 31, 2015 Yeah, it was hard to catch, then suddenly a friend noticed that the metal claws weren't at a 90 degree on the turbo side 08 Spec B, insta: @08_spec_b, 10 SH Forester insta: @shfozzy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
