I own a 03 BA XR6T I was driving down the M2 today and car sounded like it has a exaust leak (Aftermarket full system)and then I realised when it come's on boost it's not responding but is still spooling up, the car is still to hot to check but could it be turbo gasket or exuast gasket or even worse f*cked turbo???

When I pulled my turbo off they dont run a gasket fro the manifold to the turbo. Just pull off all your heatshields and take a look. You should be able to spot the leak then.

I didn't check mine for a while and it ruined the gasket around the turbo to dump pipe :( Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/60832-help-with-car/#findComment-930414 Share on other sites More sharing options...
