Is this a bad a problem or can lead to a bad problem?
Is this a turbo lag?
I never had this problem b4 until wednesday and thursday, i didnt drive it after that.
Symptoms
boosting @ weird rpm range or just dont boost at all.
Normally it kicks in around 2.7k rpm, and it lag till like 4k rpm and made my car jumped. note this is on third and on to forth
Also If it was boosting it takes a long time for the turbo boost to kick in and etc.
Also i check my boost gauge and it shows that it dont show signs of boosting and i dont hear the turbine spooling up anymore or hear the BOV.
My narrow down possiblity why this is happening but not really sure
A. Not enough air into the intake to the turbo
B. Leak in the manifold
C. Turbo not working
D. Leak in BOV.
E. I turn my car into a daily driver (mental problem bout boost not boosting) -which my friend thinks is that problem.
Car: 88 TII
So anyone have an answer?
