Hey everyone,
Ive been hearing this rattle coming from my 3SGTE. it starts about 10 PSI, and I think the Boost isn't going past 10-ish PSI as well. I Have a Blitz adjustable BoV on it just off of the intercooler. now my thought is, the Valve inside, is not able to stay closed at 10-ish PSI and starts to flutter open. is this possible? is it easy to repair if so? Thanks, Kevin This post has been edited by Soulend: Mar 31, 2011 - 1:24 AM |

so while working on all the mounts and fixing them... I found out what My problem was.
blue lock tight is crap... I went around the engine and found several bolts and nuts very VERY lose, and some missing. My loss in boost and that rattle... probably due to the turbo literally just sitting in place... I was missing two lock nuts, and the other two were very lose. so this weekend will be dedicated to finding and tightening every bolt and nut to spec again, and finishing up the mounts. I don't like admitting to my car literally falling apart, but I want other so look and thing about their own cars and engines. I was lucky. I was just backing out of a parking lot. some one else could be going down the freeway boosting at 80MPH... good Luck, Have Fun, and BE SAFE! Kevin |
