1g needs help [no power]

[supermanvick]

Somebody please help i just drove my talon for the first time in three years but when i get to 2nd it seems like its not pulling hard like it should and thats at 12psi. It used to just throw you back in the seat. Does that mean theres a boost leak or what? Somethins not right and the idle will no stay down. Ill set it around 1k and after i drive it and stop it goes up to 2500k.

my guess is that you have a decent size boost leak, and for your idle it may be your throttle position sensor. I would check both of those out.

could you tell me where are some good places to check for boost leak?

here is a good post by Gas_Man on the steps to complete a boost leak test.

Good luck.

IF you want to do a quick visual inspection I would check the J-pipe gasket and bolts, and all the rubber charge pipes for cracks or tears.
