Mhi 18k

Hi guys, i just have some question and also need some advice. So last night i was driving home from work and was just cruising around 40mph, then i decided to pull a little bit, so downshifted to 3rd gear. What heppened next got me scared, the stock upper intercooler pipe went out sounded like a boom, checked engine light went on, so i put the pipe back on and made sure everything is tight, now im getting a little paranoid of the sound that im hearing from inside while driving, not sure what it is. I currently have mhi 18k on evo x, 3.5 ets intecooler core with lower pipes, but the upper pipings. What do you guys think about this?

Thanks in adavance 😁

So your on the stock UICP? What is the sound your are hearing? I would make a video and post it up so we can be more helpful.

Have you done a boost leak test? It can be leaking somewhere else still.

Invest in a UICP, that's the important one on the X. The LICP isn't a necessity on the stock frame stuff.
