I've been running 8 psi on my 420a built motor for about 2 months. I have a stock exhaust at the moment so I didn't want to go higher yet. Lately I've been noticing that I can hear the turbo spooling a lot more clearly than I used to be able to, nothing sounds as tight. It sounds like my exhaust is leaking up near where it connects to the downpipe, but I'm not sure if an exhaust leak would cause this sound or not. It just sounds like a loud spool (high pitched whoosh sound). I guess my only solution is to install the 3" exhaust I was planning on getting and seeing if that fixes the problem? I'm just scared to damage by turbo between now and then. Any suggestions?
