weird sound when building up boost
all i have is a hks intake and open atmospere modded stock blow off valve. *note this happened before and after the bov mod. i'm pretty sure i do have vacuum leaks if this could cause the problem, but i'm afraid it might be detonation.
under hard acceleration when boost is building for example, in 2nd, full-throttle going through 3500 on up when building boost there's a weird sound that comes out of the engine bay. it sounds like two metal things hitting each other, sounds sort of like a small stone in a washing machine, sort of pulsating and around 6k it sort of disappears or its just drowned out by the engine. let me know what you guys think.
this is a 1987 tII

well... i said the same thing to myself. then i got to thinking whats the most likely problem that i didn't check. and i found it, the previous owner switched the leading 2 with the trailing 1 which was causing the problem.
thanks for your time.
