all of a sudden my r32 is not boosting anymore.. it was boosting fine today, but tonight when i was driving it the standard gauge shows only a tiny bit over the 0 mark.. and flutter and bov noise has reduced dramatically..

it idles like normal, and drives like normal (normal as in a non turbo car. revs up fine, just no boost and no kick-back).

i have not change anything at all.. car is standard, standard boost, pod, bov, cat back. i check some of the vac lines and they all seem normal, and the vac line to the wastegate actuator is still on. i cant see if its still connected to the housing as its too dark and not much room to look..

any ideas fellas?

check your intercooler piping, BOV and all your hoses are connected.

so the car idles/drives fine (apart from not making any boost)?

is the car making any unusual noises?

ill disconnect the BOV tomorrow to see if that fixes it.

the car drives and idles like a normal non-turbo car.. just not making any boost (only a little flutter is heard, and i mean a tiny bit)

no unusual noises. thats wat is confusing me.. starts like normal too

Is it the std turbo? You said its all std so im assuming thats true. Check if you have an exhaust wheel, or any wheels for that matter? Not boosting, then its prob turbo related if everything else looks good on the outside.

    • Hi all, I’m currently running a str pipe hi low hks exhaust and downpipe. Was wondering if I change out muffler to a titanium one will it change the sound of the exhaust? Plus I have always liked the look of the titanium pipes … anyone have recommendations to one?    side note already have titanium intake pipes. 
    • I looked up my other car that is a R33 GTST series 1.5. Anyone able to confirm what a Aero Form Bumper is?     (1G) 2 Door Coupe; (2GK + 11V) RB25DET; (4B) 2WD HICAS; (7F) 5 Speed Manual; (14G) Super Fine Hard Coat; (15U) Large Rear Spoiler + Aero Form Bumper + Rear Wiper (Aero Selection)
    • Ha ha, all good! I've almost caved in and realised I'm buying one.  I know myself well enough by now that I will start chasing ADHD butterflies half way through building it and not finish it so I'm better off spending the extra money buying one instead of making one just so I can get into straight away.  I would very much enjoy making one as fabrication is probably a strength and definitely a passion but I don't want that to be at the detriment to the car I'm ultimately building it for! There's some pretty good ones around for ~$1100 at the moment so I think I'll just go that way.  At the end I sell it or as mentioned, get another project to make further use of it! Thanks gents.  
    • That link was very helpful thank you.
    • That is the option code, not the VIN. Regardless all of that production is considered series 2: https://gtr-registry.com/en-ecr33-vin-table.php
