Is it ok to drive around with a boost leak? I will be purchasing a lower intercooler pipe next week...

 

huh? your going to purchase a evo with boost leak?....Its fine because some people don't even know they have a boost leak until they test. But be sure to check that boost leak is your only problem on your new purchase.

 

WTF DID YOU JUST SAY!??!!? this makes no sense?!?!?

 

Why not just fix it if you know it has a boost leak!!!!!! And check for other pros also....good luck...

 

Purchasing a boost leak was the greatest investment I ever made.

 

I bought 2..Thought I feel like I may have wasted my money as they were just vacuum lines 1/2way ripped through...But they seem like good quality boost leaks I suppose..890$

Car pulls like no other now

 

Awesome, just awesome!

It's ok, but don't get into boost much with it. Fix it and then have fun.

 

If you have a boost leak, do not boost the car or your engine will run very rich and definitely kill your plugs, among other thins.

 

Sounds like a great deal!

 

Sorry for not explaining correctly guys. I was in a hurry earlier. Thanks for the response. I have been driving my 9 for about 2000 miles. Just didnt notice i had a boost leak. I thought i just got used to the horsepower...

 

haha Funny responses above.

Anyway, it is fine to drive with a boost leak, but you're not getting all power you paid for...

What is causing the leak? Do you know?

 

Thanks burklow. I will be fixing it soon. It is the lower intercooler pipe portion that connects to the intercooler. It is bent a little bit due to hitting a curb.
