Title: Smoke Test in Bristol/ South Wales
Post by: pootas on 18 February 2013, 21:11

Can anybody recommend a garage that does smoke tests for boost leaks in Bristol/Glos/South Wales area....

My turbo seems to be whistling more than it should and I'm guessing I've got a leak but cannot for the life of me find it!!!

Think he charges an hours labour  :undecided:

All depends on what equipment you have  :undecided:  he does have the correct bungs etc to ensure a tight seal when conducting the test
