Re: JET's 335Xi

Well I didn't even have to do a boost leak test. I had been thinking about it recently and wondered what was sealing up the metal coupler side of the charge pipe. I did some more checking and I pulled a noob mistake. The new pipe didn't come with an o-ring and the other one came off with the old pipe and didn't stay on the TB. I pulled it apart tonight and got the o-ring in there.

So, I have been running with a huge boost leak! That explains why the dyno fell off so bad and I was not holding boost as good up top as I thought. Now I want to get back on the dyno! I can't wait to drive it tomorrow and see the difference.
