hey... can anyone help me on a leak test...my turbo is whistling like crazy everytime i boost so i thought it be a leak and now its whining even louder...i took everything apart and turbo has no visible damage whatsoever plus its new turbo...

i made a leak test myself and hook it up to the compressor side... capped off every hole on the ic pipes... im using a manual pump with a gauge... im about to hit 20 psi on the gauge but it leaks off right away.... do people usually use a air compressor or electric pump of some sort to do the leak test?? im not able to find leaks anywhere but when i pump..its not holding... any help??

 

can anyone help??

 

ok.. i found the leak... i have the 20g-9-5 from buschur racing with adapter kit... the turbo outlet pipe that buschur racing includes is leaking... between the compressor outlet and the outlet pipe (buschur racing) ... it wont seal no matter what!! getting so frustrated... is there any type of sealant i can use around that area to seal it??? anyone??

 

Any "gasket maker" in a tube should work. Sorry, not sure what it is called, I am kinda drunk from the Saints game. The bastards lost. Oucho Cinco kicked our a.sses.

 

lol.. sober up.. alright.. i'll stop by autozone to check out it..

 

Make sure you let it cure before crankin up the boost. Then crank it up!

 

Yep thin coat of ATV silicone on both side of the gasket.
