ok so I figured out my low boost issue... It's not my boots that were an issue, it's the bolts on the back side of the compressor housing. I pressure tested it and used soapy water and had bubbles all over.

Now my question is should I try to take the back off and see if there is a gasket or something or just send it back to BD?

HELP!

 

If you want any warranty out of it I would leave it alone, take it off and send it back. If it's under warranty, give it one more shot and if that don't work buy an HTT.

 

well I finally talked to someone yesterday. He told me that if it was leaking at the back of the compressor housing that it would only result in 1-2 psi loss? Seems to me that would be the most important part. An once again I got the same story "well we never get issues with this turbo" blah blah blah. I started doubting the truck again that it might be something I overlooked or missed until I put the stock one back on. What do you know; 40#'s just like the good days. So would you not agree with me that it HAS to be the turbo?

 

if replacing the Turbo with the stocker cures the problem, then it is DEFINATELY the other turbo..

 

I would call BD and tell em to make it right............just explain what you told us here

there shouldnt be any leaks on this thing .......sounds like a warped housing maybe ???

 

Its on the way back to them. Just sucks because I didnt have anything here to put it in to send back so to get box and wrapping and freight to WA was nearly $140. This dang thing has costs too much time and money. And when I get it back I will have to cut the exhaust back again to put it back on.

 

damn...........try to make BD cover this expense

 

just got an email saying that the warranty has expired. They can only look at it and tell me what to do to fix it. I think they are looking at the time for my first one. But it's one thing to cancel my warranty I'd I came to them one year later, but this has been an ongoing situation fir months. You would think they might help out. Or tell me it's up before I paid to have the damn thing sent up there for them to say it's something else.

 

Wouldn't put it past them if they said that there is nothing wrong with it.

 

looks like i wont be buying anything from them,
