last night i boosted pretty high and let off and i think maybe i caused a vacum leak of some sort,

the car wont idel very well,

the turbo wont spool, the boost gauge never goes above the zero, it stays between -7 and 0 when in the throttle

theres a siren liek noise that increases as i apply the throttle..

ideas?

I belive part of the problem is the driver/ mechanic.

Realistically im just goign to take off all the intake pipe and inercooler pipes and inspect them tonight and put them back together..

i will also check and make sure mty turbo is not seized up or anything like that. The car ran low on coolant around them same time this happened so it may have part in it.

after doing alot of research while milking the clock at work i came across alot of information that leads meto belive it is in fact the turbo.

I will keep you all updated tonight as the results should be in.
