Message	Thanks for the advice. Pisses me off that I just bought the car on the 23rd. Wish I had paid attention to it sooner. (I don't even know if it was operating correctly then) Soon as I get a minute I'll look at pulling them or have a good mechanic in SF do it. I know it has to be hard on the single turbo that's left if one is frozen, pushing it to its grave, but is there any other danger to driving the car until then? (It's not going to blow the intake or something is it?)
Follow Ups	Sorry, but I have a question about boost. - CoHPhasor 04:46:57 04/03/10 not sure if I read that correctly, but sounds like you have - LJZTT 05:20:25 04/03/10 Definitely what I'm trying to figure out - CoHPhasor 05:24:09 04/03/10 lower than that actually, but the OEM gauge is "approximate" - LJZTT 05:50:57 04/03/10 interesting. Either I'm -12:0, I'm higher and it's lying, or - CoHPhasor 05:56:54 04/03/10 what I am trying to say is dont worry about the numeric - LJZTT 11:31:09 04/03/10 Sounds like a seized turbo. - Draker (Eugene, OR) 15:02:11 04/03/10 An easy gauge check - ConVerTT 11:02:59 04/03/10 My test gauge was $15 from Pepboys. - Woody75 (Denver) 12:07:39 04/06/10 I'd pull the down pipes off and check for a seized turbo. - Wright (Ca) 09:50:39 04/03/10 if the boost leak is THAT big, the car wont rev much past 3k - LJZTT 11:33:55 04/03/10 Have you ever owned or been in a z before? - pearlzed(toronto) 10:27:44 04/03/10 I was out today, but will look deeper. May need an SF Z'er. - CoHPhasor 01:55:39 04/04/10 Ok, finally got to check it out, - CoHPhasor 04:45:10 04/07/10 Still sounds like a bad/frozen turbo. - Woody75 (Denver) 07:35:01 04/07/10 That stinks.
