Tony just get rid of that thing and cut your loss. Your talon is lookin like a gem compared to this thing.I'm not gonna give up on it...i basically shoulda just redone the swap when i got the car...it woulda been faster by now...a new turbo is definately around the corner but i dont wanna spend any money on mods until i can be certain its gonna fix the problem or the problems are fixed...i need a 3'' to 2.5'' reducer before i can make any more assumptions or anything...

A boost leak of that magnitude would probably be pretty loud and noticeable. Either the turbo isn't getting sufficient exhaust flow or it's not rotating. Hey, if it's stationary, you have one of those $69.95 supercharge any car deals.
Anyway, it's a nice excuse for a new turbo. -
im happy you wasted almost a year not drivin your talon, finally drive it, a nice 1g at that and now induct another problem when things were goin well.
i think you just enjoy drivin your grand prix a lil to often.

well fixed that leak today, well the best of my ability but i need a new UICP cause idk what the hell that guy was thinking...its made for an S13 so its all cut up and shit to kind of "fit"...i cant even get the T-bolt to actually clamp onto the pipe/coupler all the way...
yeah guys learn from my problems...dont buy cars with swaps that have problems(it has been fun so far regardless of how much of a pain its been tho), or former dyno queen DSM shells with the tranny laying in the car where the front seat was....but in all honesty the $10 reducer i bought the other day was the single most expensive part ive bought since ive had the car...not bad id say for a car with problems....

For starters idk why your so worried about t-bolts, YOU DONT NEED THEM w/ the whopping 6 psi your running. Just get a clamp on there already.
Tony just face it, you got ripped off, no excuses around it. The car has ran like complete garbage since day 1 and it still doesn't run right. I'd have fixed the problem long time ago or dumped the whole car by now.

no the T-bolt is what was on there...i cant even get it to clamp completely on the the pipe...it has nothing to do with the T-bolt...and i cant just dump the car like you tho nick...dont get me wrong id love to have a good running car by now but i just cant dump it off...the process is slow cause i dont put a lot of time into it...
