!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 

ok so im driving my car( 83 242 turbo) to the car wash to clean the engine( looking fo mysterious oil leak)so i spray off the engine and start to drive home im going a reasonable 35 then i had to get in the next lane, so i give it some gas and its makes the loud whistle sound right before it hit boost and continued until i shifted. Once again i gas hard and the sound comes again.It was perfectly fine the whole way over but on the way back it started whistling. The only thing i did was power wash the engine.Some other recent things i did were remove down pipe,charge pipe and intake pipe,shim waste gate,and i kinda race a jaguar on the way to the car wash but i put all the hoses back on and torque the exhaust bolts and everything plz help if possible any thought/ideas are greatly appriciated :'(

Re:!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 

sounds like you didn't hook up the intake all the way and you can hear the turbo spooling.

Re:!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 

maybe you took alot of dirt off the air filter and could hear the turbo more. is your boost gauge reacting the same as before?

Re:!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 

i took offf the turbo and found out that when i washed it the hot to cold cracked the compressor housing so i guess time for new turbo
