Hey, everyone I just recently redone the turbo , header and cold air intake
On my 95gst. I fired it up and it runs amazing for sitting for 5 years. I was going down the road and was feeling throttle happy so I had to see what it had. In first it reaches 14 pounds at about 5500 rmp, second it goes to 11 pounds at 4200rmp then and big jolt happens and u have to let out of the gas. Is that the waste gate kicking in? Or do I have other problems, help. It does this in third to but never in first.
 
so i feel like a complete idiot. i made a boost leak tester and put it on. as soon as i hooked the air hose to it with the regulator set at 9 psi, there was a crazy amount of air just blowing out of somewhere. turns out the intake side of my intercooler was 100% loose and my hose was just hanging there. so now my car pulls hard in every gear and roles smoke off the tires through first and second.:hellyeah:
 
sure is and i feel like the happiest man alive LOL. i was tired of my car bogging down in second and jolting like crazy i couldnt figure it out at all. im glad i took the hole 10 minutes of my life to make a boost leak tester and find that leak
