NEW turbo 2002 UPDATE****** It's on the road now!

[fiftytakedowns]

good shit man!
even I have some learning to do about turbos...

but anyway, I need some help deciding what to do about exhaust.

Im thinking a straightpipe just coming out the passenger, right behind the fender, under the door. this is cheap, probably most badass.

mostly looking for cheapest options....

advice?

couple other issues at hand:

Blow off valve isnt opening..

its set in the middle, Ill try loosening it up all the way next.

The turbo itself is acting really funny as well...
it doesnt start boosting until 3.5 K and never hits max boost. It just consistently climbs slowly till I shift. and the max I hit is about 11PSI, but I feel it would continue..

Im wondering if this is due to an internal wastegate failure, or something along those line..

Intake Leak test:

I have an Air compressor, how do I Do an intake leak test, assuming that I have limited tools

Is there alternate ways other than using this hokey thing?


EDIT: diid some googling, and found some good answers. I guess Ill have to make one of these bad boys.
