Re: exhuast leak? pics inside...
of course it leaks. It's obvious.
Did you machine your downpipe flange FLAT after you welded it ? if you didn'T, well the heat of welding just distorted that flange like a taco and that'S why it leaks. :8 Yes, that leak is equivalent to having a wastegate open all the time and it slows down your spool up too. |
Re: exhuast leak? pics inside...
smear jb weld all over the flange right before you put it on.
its just like taco sauce :8 http://www.tacala.com/images/soft-taco.jpg |
Re: exhuast leak? pics inside...

im talking with the shop that did the downpipe right now im sure the turbo was machined when rebuilt |
