Angry Well my SS is back in the shop

Thursday afternoon I was enjoying the spring like weather, shifted the SS out of 2nd. just before redline. I heard a small pop and realized that I had no boost. 5500 hundred miles on it no boost, engine power real low. Anybody have any idea what happened.

Most likely one of your charge pipes came off. Check the one under the manifold. Had it happen to mine

Red face Back on the road

Hey guys, The dealer just returned my car, guess what, all the clamps were loose on the turbo. They put the hose back on and tightened the clamps. The SS is running better than ever. Thanks for your interest and comment.

We had the exact same problem. One day fix plus the dealer cleaned the car.
