Hi, this is my first post. I own a 91 Eagle Talon Tsi. I just got done with my timing belt replacement and when I started it up it idles like shit and only has like 10 inches of vacuum at idle. I checked all of my alignment marks and they look good. At the same time I did my timing belt I put in a ported 1g exhaust manifold, and I noticed that the intake where it connects to the turbo is loose but I cant tighten anymore. Do you think that this could cause me to lose 6 inches. Any help would be great. Thanks
Jeff
 
-What is your timing set at? the intake is loose, did you mean the accordion rubber hose from the air filter? is it stock turbo? did you use the rubber spacer between the hose and the turbo?
