So here's the deal, sometimes when i go to get into the boost it does nothing then at other times ,on the same drive, in the same gear, at the same speed, ill get on her and boost galore. I am noticing when the boost doesn't build i will hear like a low pitch groan when i get on the gas, imagine something like a low pitch horse sneeze that's continuous opposed to the repetitive sound of horse sneeze. This could very well be the sound of a naturally aspirated v6 but i hear it none the less. I am thinking maybe a turbo actuator that is sticking ? That sound possible ?
Turbo is a TE44 from what I was told, has a new RJC downpipe. Also it seems to build boost a little slow, I made a boost leak tester but didn't find any significant leaks at 25psi. Had the headers off this winter and did not notice any cracks, drivers side header has been repaired by previous owner.
