Title states it all. I'm having a heck of time diagnosiing whats up with this thing. I can hear the turbo spool but during boost, the boost from the turbo seems to cut in and out. My buddy told me that the turbo sounds more like a "high pitched whine" rather than the whooshing of normal turbo. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks

PS I'm also looking for possibly a new turbo, what should I be looking for that would be a direct drop in for my car. I'm not looking for the best of the best brand new and would prefer used. Thanks!

 

turbo is not blown

 

alright... so any idea what it might be then?

 

boost leak somewhere maybe? gotta do a boost leak test
