Minor boost leak after IC install or normal behavior?

Miller335 · 09-18-2014, 05:03 PM

Looking at my logs it seems like it takes a little bit longer for boost to ramp up then it did with factory IC and also I seem to be about 1lb of boost under targets pretty much across the board.

Do I have a small boost leak after install or is this normal behavior when going from stock IC to 7" IC?

check all your couplings just went through this issue myself, but I had a whine like a supercharger from the driver side intercooler coupling

You were able to sort your issue and hit target PSI with 7" intercooler vs. stock IC?

Yep.

Ok Thank you.
I will have to go over my install again, damn.
