Hi folks
Well I got myself back into a subaru today and I have issues already!
I got the car checked over by Dave in STI Tuning, Cheers for all the help Dave! Your a good man and no complaints!
I got a 99 B4 twin turbo legacy, The guy I bought it off has just rebuit the engine, Dave drove the car and the changeover from turbo 1 to 2 was slow, Dave suggested it could be boost solenoid, or bad plumbing as on of the pipes into the second turbo looked poor and was sealed with sealant??? Not a major issue in his eyes just to be dealt with.
I was on the way home, was driving easy off boost for ages and decided to plant the foot in 5th for a min! The car got to about 3700rpm and then wallop, like i hit a brick wall. Backed off immediately, slowed down and tried again in 3rd, wallop again same revs.
I slowly brought up the revs and it didnt happen at all at half throttle.
I dont have a boost gauge, Anyone shed any opinions on this?
Id love to just drop this to Dave next week but I live in cork and id like to try sort this down this way!
Where do i start?
