shot out a hole in the block then got sucked into the intake and ripped a hole through the filter then got into the turbo.

Just got the car back today after they dragged their damn feed for a week, more on that worthless dealer.......but now it won't boost over 11-12 psi....can I get a favor, can someone take a picture of the stock vacuum routes coming off the turbo, something just doesn't look right.....and it wouldn't suprise me if they hooked it up wrong.

just throwing it out there even though it is holding boost, boost leak? did they not tighten all clamps?

i'd say u have to look at how the vacuum lines are hooked up compared to the diagram above. if they actually have one incorrect, bring it back and point it out. show them their mistake and get something out of them. because after already having to go through replacing a brand new turbo on a brand new car, they are not properly fixing the problem.

my $.02 of the night.
