i was driving out the road today when i put my foot down it started to boost up ok then it started to rev up(like i had my foot on the clutch but i didnt) but the car wasnt going any faster.Then i heard a weird woosh noise when the car was boosting.could this be a problem with the turbo?any ideas?Thanks in advance

first problem is your clutch is slipping, second sounds like normal turbo noises.....

when you put the boot down and turbo is ment to kick in, does the revs kinda die and the car splutters & then just revs up after a few?? :confused:

the wooshing sound on mine anyways is the induction kit.
if you'd have a leak in the piping she wouldnt be running right
at all. if she's fine then your problem would be somewhere on
the exhaust side. tbh id nearly guess a gasket has blown :rolleyes:

i no what the woosh your thinking of its the turbo chopping up the excese boost its not that.it sounds like a gasket blew. :rolleyes:have new gaskets off nissan a cool 20 notes each. putting in the decat friday and clutch will be done some stage next week then all should be fine. i can consentrate on modding then a bit basic looking at the moment. Have my kit and alloys got just need funds now to start.:D

There was nuts missing from the manifold to the turbo. it was barley hanging on. new gaskets were put in and decat also put in car sounds mint now. Its a trust twin pipe really raspy sound off it.Thanks for all the input lads and lassies:D

its a very very common problem with them, driftworks do special locking nuts that stops them from opening again, i see some japs even tacked some weld on some of the nuts to stop them opening
