WOOOHOO! hlp ASAP!!!!

I think I found my secondary turbo problem! while crawling under my car to blow my turbo's into non sequential, I notice that the little rod thats attatched to the switchy thingy right behind the TCA was popped off! would that cause my good primary, but my secondary to drop from 8to about 4???

it will be much easier to disconnect the TCA first. Just take out the two bolts, probably dont even need to disconnect the vacuum lines...slip the rod back on, put on a c-clip so it doesnt slip out again... shouldnt take more than 10-15 minutes
