IWSTI Addict since: Apr 2007 Trader Rating: (3) | I noticed that whenever I give boost then I hear a whistle sound. It's not really a whistle sound more like a whooossshhhh sound. I really can't tell where it's coming, but I have a feeling it's coming from the passenger side. It sounds like there is a crack some where. Do you guys have any idea where it could be coming from?

IWSTI Addict since: Aug 2006 Trader Rating: (0) | I'm guessing its just the noise of the turbo... I can hear mine even with the stock air box in.. I'd bet money theres nothing wrong with your car. |

IWSTI Addict since: Aug 2006 Trader Rating: (15) | ^ I wouldn't bet money but I highly doubt there is something wrong. Have you noticed any loss of boost? |

IWSTI Addict since: Apr 2007 Trader Rating: (3) | I have appointment at DS1 Motorsports next week on Friday for a boost leak test. Yes. I am still trying to figure out what is the problem. The car doesn't spool as fast as it used to after getting tuned. Another way I can say is that the rpms don't go as fast as they used to after getting tuned. |

IWSTI Addict since: Jun 2004 Trader Rating: (6) | You should be able to do a boost leak test yourself. Its pretty easy to do. You only need a few dollars to make your own pressure tester, and access to a tire pump or compressor to check it yourself. This ad is not endorsed by this member.
