hello eveyone
my dsm start having this problem sense thuresday, when i start the car in the morning to go to work, it runs normal for maybe 5 or 10 minute, until the car warm, after that when i give it gas, it dont feel like the turbo is kicking, anyone have any idea what could cause it to run like that , thank you

Have you checked for boost leaks?

I would also look for exhaust leaks. Mine ran like crap for a little, i just decided to change the exh mani, turbo, and o2 gaskets and got my power back (person before me installed a cheap metal gasket). Makse sure you nuts and bolts are tight as well, they tend to come lose with the heat and will leak.

yea i have a broking b olt on the turbo manifold, that might be the problem, also comes out of the bov, i think its time to change the turbo too, anybody got a e3 16g for sale?
