Paul Yelaska Member 5 Member For: 15y 28d Posted 14/04/10 06:06 AM Share Posted 14/04/10 06:06 AM Can I please get some advise on my 2004 XR6 turbo ute Mark 1, I have big injectors, upgraded standard exhaust, valve springs air box snorkle all dyno tuned at 235RWKW @ 13psi through cappa flash tunner, just recently I have installed myself a cappa replacement intercooler, I didnt get it retuned becuase it was running perfectly with no boost spiking. though now after about a good month or so its only hitting about 9psi boost and takes abit more to spool up. I have looked under the bonnet to chech for leaks around hoses everything seems to be fine, but I did find 2 bottom bolt missing from the turbo to the engine manifold. I have got new ones today which im goin to put on. do you think this could be my problem or could it be from the intercooler I have just installed and my need a retune? is there anything else I shoud be looking at.I em just in the process of selling my ute now this has happened so if anyone ca please help me out that would be Appreciated. as im not to keen on speneding much more money on this car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boost solenoid maintenance probably wouldn't be a bad idea either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard the actuator would go befor the boost solenoid. Edited 14/04/10 10:12 AM by revheadrobbo No need to quote above post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
