Boost issue!

Postby Lotusholic » Wed 14.10.2015, 01:48

Hello everyone..!! I own a 91 pacific blue elan with 178.000 klms(110.000 mi) on the clock! :D

My problem starts when i push the pedal harder than average and the needle goes up...i feel that the car has no boost for 1 or 2 seconds and then we have the explode...like something is sticky because i hear the turbo spinning the whole time! I have no engine lights,nothing crazy to see. I can tell that is something in the turbo-boost section because the engine seems right and rev!
Also i have experience some overboosts lately...almost 1 bar in the needle! :porn: :shock:

My car is totally stock just for you to know....if anyone had similar experience or knowledge on the subject :bowdown: ...i would appreciate it! Cheers :cheers:
