RE: Question for the Boosted guys....



Agreed.

I would check both the WG and the turbo. Lock your WG closed and take it for
a VERY careful drive up the street.

that would have to be a hell of an exhaust leak to get no boost at all. so bad that it would sound like straight exhaust in the engine bay - even at idle.
wastegate may be stuck open.

Ok, I have a problem that I want to verify it is what I think it is.

Back Ground: This is a Corrado G60 Motor (in a Rocc) the g-lader was
swapped for a Turbo.

The problem: I have an exhaust manifold gasket leak that has gotten worse.

The question: As of right now I am getting no boost.  Is it that the
leak at the manifold/head is causing enough back pressure that the
turbo is not spooling? Or do I have another problem that I need to be
looking into?

Any help and suggestions would be great.

TAI for your help,

Dave
