mjfjuliano Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 05 legacy GT w/ intake,turbo inlet, exhaust, in any given gear, will feel slow up to 3k rpm, then from 3-5k feel slightly less slow, and only from 5-6.5kRPM does the car feel like it did before i ran into said problem. i have not had a pro/custom tune yet, the turbo has 4k miles and the problem began shortly after installation of the turbo inlet. I have checked thoroughly for boost leaks, sparks and coils are only a thousand miles in, and i feel lost. Is it possible my car is in desperate need of a tune or am i running circles around something simpler? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boneskid1 Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 It sounds like you need a tune. I do not know how much more help you will get without some logs. Do you have an accessport or a Tactrix cable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttnio Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 turbo inlet installation DIY or professionally done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjfjuliano Posted October 21, 2020 Author Share Posted October 21, 2020 turbo inlet was professionally installed, no data logs accessible. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devobuzz Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 My problem was that the wastegate was hung open. So the boost was bleeding off. Had to disconnect the downpipe to free it up. Another symptom was a rattle sound at idle. I thought it was a heat shield but it was actually the wastegate puck rattling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
