#108733, "Loss of Boost"


          

Yesterday I went to the track and blew my elbow from my turbo to the intercooler and replaced it with a radiator hose(couldn't find a rubber elbow with 2" diameter). I also had to replace my airfilter because something caused the rubber gasket to go limp n the filter wouldn't stay on.

Today my vacuum line from the manifold and waste gate came off and my EGR valve melted. It looks like someone took a torch to it.

I now have no boost and was wondering would the turbo having its leaks fixed cause all these items to start breaking down? I replaced the plugs and coils plus fixed all the boost leaks and turned down the boost from 10psi to 8psi.

I love the turbo, turbonetics T3/4 hybrid with a star stage 2 kit but dont like how things are magically going. I live in socal and perhaps someone who can tune a 420a can help.
