ticking wen boostin

[Hulmie]

im suspecting something hasnt been done right or they have damage the auxy belt tensioner or sumats along them lines

its defenatly leaking exhaust gasses if the manifold nuts are loose.. easliy fixed as long as the gasket hasnt burnt out.

Should be heading down to R-Tech tomorrow to try and find out what my problem is. will update you on the findings to see if it helps cure your problem aswell.

Ask em post me my bloody plastic bit back to me please mate lol they seem to not wanna send it back

Hope they sort it, I have a light rattle when accelerating/coming on boost, if it does it once boosting I dunno as I can't hear it there on it. Be interesting to see if they find anything amiss with yours.

spent the day at R-Tech and found the fault and all is fixed. Im running a 3" japspeed downpipe and it had cracked on the weld where it bolts on to the turbo. So welded it up, fitted it back on and no more ticking noise. Boosting better aswell.

Thanks to Nick, Lenny, Jim n Ben. Also nice to meet Jamie16v

Yeah I have a feeling mine is gonna be something similar... going to get priced up for a 3" downpipe and sports cat at the weekend, I'll see if he has time check too.

[Hulmie]

avoid the jap crap downpipes mate. apparently its common for the welds to crack as R-tech had another in a few weeks back.

Just gonna go to powerflow, they did a mates for 160 inc a sports cat which sounds toooooo cheap so I think he was BS'ing me a bit but soon find out lol.

Also I think my cat is probably a bit dead, possibly rattling when loads of air being chucked through it?

[Hulmie]

Not sure if powerflow can do you a 3 inch downpipe. Would bother chnaging unless you can get a 3 inch downpipe.
