Just noticed the boost gauge, it's only getting to 6psi, was around 8 a couple weeks ago. I noticed also alot of oil around my BOV, can this be because the oil seal is bad inside the turbo?

Leaky charge pipes, waste gate, blow off valve, coupler would be the most likely fault in the system. Your Gauge could be bad too... -
He has to have a leak somewhere what kinda turbo is it i hope its not a dsm setup those seals go on those turbos fast because they are used. Get rid of that oil leak first of that turbo will soon seize up. How much boost where you running before 8 huh hmmm check your chargepipes and couplers sometimes along with the clamps they can go bad when pressure is up and you wont even notice. ofcourse he would feel a power loss going from 8-6 thats a noticeable -20 on his setup. Check those and keep us postedComment

I checked all the charge pipes, only one that could possibly have a problem is the one coming right after the turbo, it has some little cracks in it, but I don't think its that. I tried wobbling around the waastegate to maybe see if it was stuck but that didn't do anything. I do feel a loss of power because I remember it pulled a hell of alot harder at higher rpms then it did now. The boost gauge was cheap actually, $20 on ebay lol. Should I try taking off the wastegate and soak it in degreaser? Oh yeah and I noticed my car smokes a little at high rpm.You have been defeated by a car with child locks, how embarassing...

Anyways, seal that crack up either welding it or use jb weld if you must then come back and tell us what's up.

Jb weld isnt gonna do it imo t will hold but for how long. If its a coupler change it if its the pipe have it welded nicely and clean it off even so that it doesnt leak.Comment
