Quuick Help Guys...

okay guys before i flip out,the car is still not fixed. however, i'm hearing a boost leak. instead of a turbo whine,i'm hearing air and a good bit. now who knows where boost leaks on this car tends to be??? is it the ic hose running from the intake manifold??? i looked under the car and seen it has that worm hose clamp i can't tell if it's tight or not. it looks like it.

Did they get the replacement part or is it still fixed, with "caulk" . . . ?

Maybe the caulk "patch" blew off . . . .

actually it's a sealent and still intact.

now,i just went out and played around with it. my blow off valve is popping off with ease and you can heard it pretty good. these revs were in neutral. rev the wifes car-no blow off sound. could the factory bov be faulty???

Could be the wastegate? They believe that my turbo problems were caused by my wastegate sticking.
