s15 boost problem

[Baz_180]

First thing to do check every pipe for a boost leak. Same thing happened my car and I found that a pipe had blown off, my car was acting exactly like you just described. If you have a compressor turn off the car and hook the compressor up to some boost pipe on the car and listen for a leak because it pretty hard to hear a leak when the car is running.

@stevo no smoke

@baz that would seem more lik the problem alright,which pipe had come off on you

[Baz_180]

Its was a pipe down at the standard intercooler in my 180 its was suppsoe to be blocked but the blank came off. I'd say the way you described it that it must be one of the main pipes. Also there was lots of smoke when I reved up mine
