I have a had a look for obvious things. Pipes look ok. Could there be a problem with the turbo itself ? It seems to spool fine with no noises. Just heaps of air coming out somewhere. Doesn't do it when o rev it in park. Only under load. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/79548-fg-turbo-boost-leak/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have booked it in to get it looked at on Wed. Just hope its nothing more serious. Might have to think about some afermarket stronger pipes if these cant even hold stock boost for 50000 ks Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/79548-fg-turbo-boost-leak/#findComment-1217691 Share on other sites More sharing options...
