just installed a partially used s16g. and an RRE oil feed line. and a apexi bov.

first drive was great, til it all stopped, no boost atall, no blowing off at all. im thinking oil blocked and killed turbo? nah,

probly a boost leak right?
 
but what would cause it?
i mean, a boost leak would be likley but why would it all of a sudden start..

what other problems associated with a fresh turbo install would hav ethe same effect.
 
i also installed an AF guage, that after 20 minutes never went higher than the first lean light
 
HAHAH WASTEGATE ACTUATOR ARM CAME OFF.

fixed my boost controller too.

its all good, now as ssoon as my 02 ho9using arrives, ill take the turbo off again and extract that broken bolt that, SOMEONE supposably drilled out correctly, haha
