took its out this morning got her hslf way work and it was missfiring and lost power the boost gauge was wobbling about. then under deceleration i noticed a wee bit of smoke out the back could the turbo be shagged
From: fee,fife,foe,fumb,i smell the blood of an englishman ,in scotland!
personally i would check the limiter,,as safechav said,or believe it or not,mine was doing similar things,till i re-wired my pump with clean fresh conections,full power and no dry joints in the lead-to-post connections, and alls well, until my limiter pops a biggun,to tell me off.
I'd start from scratch personally, rip everything out of the engine bay and inspect every hose etc before re-fitting, but thats me
thats what im planning to do as i say i heard a hose pop off and then no power and backfiring. its getting booked in for a set up in the next two weeks my car my pals car and his pals car are all doing the same thing
