This weekend I installed a new mbc and I had it set to stock boost at first then I raised it to 14lbs. I forgot to tighten a clamp for the coupler on the turbo going to my fmic. Well the engine killed I pulled over and put it back on tightened it and drove home. I decided to go for a test ride and I was in 2nd gear building boost got to about 12lbs and I heard a woosh of air like the intercooler pipe popped off again so I pulled over checked it and all other clamp an they all was on and tight. So I started to drive again and noticed my turbo was not making and sound and I was not building no voost. The car is like a n/a engine now less power no boost and the turbo lines,couplers ect are on and tight. I kind of hear a low clanking noise in the turbo I think. Is my turbo bad? Car runs and starts fine just have no boost and no sound from my ct26? whats the deal?

205's do have a stock plumb back bov
dude dont listen to these people saying your car will die without a bov it wont, like you say it didnt have a bov factory, and neither do a lot of other cars. Over say 12 psi a bov is a good idea, below that just be happy with your flutter. Is it a ct26 or ct20b turbo? ceramic or steel wheeled? a steel wheeled ct26 will be fine up to 15 psi or so, any more and its too inefficient. steel wheeled ct20b will handle 20 psi for long periods of time ceramic ct26 i wouldnt run any more then 12 psi ceramic ct20b i wouldnt run more then 14 psi do you have a stock dump pipe? -------------------- ST205 Group A Rallye GT-Four, #61 of 77............600hp GT3582r
