Nissan Skyline r34 GTT - Struggling to boost up hills and loosing power

[Mjames]

Hey Guys, 

I have owned this skyline for just going on 2 years, the original owner has modified the vehicle and I'm not exactly sure which mods they have done to it. 

 

Was powering up a hill one day when something popped. Not exactly sure yet what it was. Ever since, not getting the correct air intake (My thoughts). Will hit 15psi but car wont move as quick as it used too. 

When accelerating up a hill. boost wont kick it, i need to drop from 5th gear to 3rd gear to be able to move the car (110km/hr) with abit of boost kicking in but blowing alot of black smoke out the back.

 

Could the be Air intake? as it's not getting the right mixture and running extremely rich?

Any solutions or idea's to fixing this ?

 

 

Thanks in advance

Boost leak.pressure test to find it.

Thought that might of been the case as well. But thinking it was still boosting wouldn't of been the case. 

Ill get it checked out

thanks

You can still make full boost with a leak . The turbo works heaps harder to do it.
