Please DO NOT Post In The General Section

From this point on until otherwise briefed, posting in the general section of Performance Tech is prohibited. The only thing to remain here will be the stickies. We would just delete this section, but that would cause unintended results.


The majority of the threads created can appropriately be placed in one of the Performance Tech sub-forums or Technical; and the posting of them here is detrimental to the activity of said forums. If you have any questions about where you need to place your thread PM me or one of the other mods.


For the most part you all have caught on without this post, but there have been a few habitual offenders that forced me to say this.


Everyone will get a couple of warnings from here on out, after that I just start deleting threads.

    Something wrong with my turbo

    So I have a Garrett t3/t4 on my h22 and I just finished with the installation. We didnt get much time to tune yet so it's not properly tuned, but I think the turbo itself is bad. It's only tuned at 4psi for now because my clutch needs replacing and my tuner is away for the week, so he tuned it so I can drive around for the week (at least), but it was spooling and making a winding sort of noise. When we were out tuning he said he had never heard that noise before and that it's possible that the turbo is bad. And today it was making that winding sound and then I couldnt even get any boost..none. So I checked all the charge pipes and they were o.k and everything seems to be o.k except I cant get any boost. Does this sound like a bad turbo?

    And no the winding noise was not the spooling, it made more of a clanking noise, it defintely doesnt sound right. Anyway I guess I might have to replace my turbo, and I might go with a 60-1 if thats what he has in stock, but Wednesday its going in to get the clutch fixed and I will get them to check the turbo at the same time

        get a sound clip up of what it sounds like.

        Are you using a manual boost controller?

          look to see if the impeller is digging into the housing. a misbalanced shaft or bad bearing would cause it, and you'd get a noise and boost issues.

            I will get a sound clip thats a good idea, and no there is no boost controller. I will check to see if theres any damage inside.
