boost leak??
boost leak??
Hey guys i installed my helix licp just a few minutres ago and i have a loud noise as if i have a leak somewhere! I believe its where the new pipe bolts to the turbo but not sure if anyone has this problem let me know. Im going to tear everything back apart and check it out. I think its a boost leak whats everyone else think?

helix does not make very quality parts so i would recheck all your hose clamps 1st. u will most likely need to get some t-clamps or constant torque clamps to hold the extra pressure you're now building. also the "search" feature will help u as well in regards to boost leaking...
what does the noise sound like? when i installed mine i had a whistle coming from the turbo outlet pipe i had to take it appart and apply new high temp gasket sealer for the gasket
it kinda sounded like a siren or such. But i took it back off put the factory back on and now i boost to like 10 psi and it cuts out., But it looks like this wil be the last time i work on my car im so sick of messing with it and it not working hell it took me 3 times to figure out and get my turboxs downpipe right. But im just going to take it to the dealership monday and have them look at it since its under warrenty granted i tried to put it on but its back to stock now so hopefully they will take care of it!!!

Trust me theyll have a field day with your car Intake, BOV, fuel pump. Plus they well here the way the car idles from the cams when you pull up. You just need to go back everything you did. Its somthing as stupid as a clamp that needs retightening. or a vaccum hose.
so i was looking over my car and found that my mass air flow harness wasnt plugged in, Im just taking a wild guess thats why my car was running so much like ****!!!!!!! So basically i took it out and it was happy boosting to peaking about 22 psi and the car loved it!!! so glad that this isnt broke anymore i can now buy stuff for it and not worry about it!!!.

No one else has answered since you admitted you were driving around with the MAF plug disconnected. The reason why I have just now recently started to give you grief is because you have literally DELUGED us with unending threads with all sorts of problems and newb questions. You have gone crazy with your mods without a tune and are messing things up left and right. I've tried to get you to chill out and calm down, but you keep adding more and more mods without a tune of any sort. And to think...you were going to go to the DEALERSHIP to ask them to fix it something like this and asked if they might cover it under warranty with all those mods you have? That's just ridiculous.
It took a long time before I got to this point with you. There are very few people that get to this point - you are one of a kind. Please stop adding mods and get tuned immediately. You have an intake, cams, and a fuel pump on the stock ECU tune, which means your car is all screwed and running terribly. You're lucky you haven't caused any permanent damage (assuming and hoping you haven't).
