Check your wastegate & vacuum connections are right. Sounds like it might be open.

Im with George...make sure all your hoses/pipes and stuff are all connected / plugged in.

The pipe from the rocker to the intake draws the oil vapours from the head and recirculates them back through the system. There are arguments for and against this idea...

Just tap a hole into the intake pipe and put a nipple on it so you can use it...Im guessing your intake doesnt have the nipple which is why your asking?

Ok I understand now. Wouldn't the 'dirty air' from the rocker cover contaminate the afm if it was plumbed in before it? And no, I don't understand how this plumbing would influence the problem you described.

Its usually plumbed in after the AFM George....to eliminate that problem.

And yeah...George is also right in saying that would have no influence on the problem you mentioned before.

Agree. The air has been measured by the afm so it must port in after the afm. When you have manifold vacuum the engine sucks the 'dirty air' past the 1way valve and into manifold. When boosting the 1way valve is shut and the air goes into the intake, pre turbo.


Gotta boost test your new manifold, bet its leaking air

I have a thread here somewhere that I started with my $3.50 boost tester. Looks like you could smoke ganja with it...
