Intercooler piping install problem.

[2GturboTALON]

SO today i finally installed my full uicp which took me a while but i got finished .I go to connect my bov dump tube and realize the angle the bov sits on the pipe wont allow a good connection, so now my dump tube has a bend in it. I figure it might not be that bad and go for a drive. I hear this annoying whine while spooling up. Anyone know what pipe im talkin about or had this same problem?

Ill get pics tomorrow.

is that whine a boost leak from the BOV?

I had a similar problem, my dump tube was a little long, so i trimmed an inch or two off to make it sit nice, and it got the kink out. I never noticed any problem, but I thought it best to have no restriction, and I am not sure if a kink will cause that much of an issue, but best to have it resolved. My fix may not have helped because it sounds like your having a different situation. Where is this kink in the tube? Is it right at the BOV, if so you may want to consider remounting it (if possible) or perhaps a 90* coupler if its really bad. A picture of the kink would help for a better understanding.

i dont think it is. I torqued it down. It's actually like a whistle now i think about it.

Run a boost leak test. Use soapy water.
Check for shaft play in your turbo.

Go and visit the wall of radiator hoses in any parts store and find one that will fit.

i fixed it i just cut the stock one. The BOV could barley recir. back into the intake.
