Google would be your best bet if you cant find one locally. Any costume or even walmart sells them during the fall for halloween.
Cheers!

Ok I bought a fogger. I need to know if I should block off the air filter port or shpuld I leave it like it is. Please let me know were I'm to hook it up at.

That is completely up to you. I would try and fog through the boost gauge port you have, but this part is going to be up to you. :humm:

If there is soot you have an up pipe leak, its not sending all the exhaust to the turbo to spool it hence lower boost. Might be time to redo the donut gaskets

Return the fog machine... What the hell is that going to show...:argh:

Pick up this tool

Boost leak tool
Hook it up and with some soapy water spray all your boot connections, from the turbo, to the motor.

If you have any leaks you will see bubbles coming from the area.

If you dont have any boost leaks you could have up pipe leaks, which you say you have checked.

Look at this picture...

Keep in mind the turbo is removed in this picture.

You dont want to see what the red arrow is showing. You can also have leaks from what is called the "babys butt" part with the blue arrow. This is very hard to see, but if someone has pulled the turbo and not paid atten they can not get this seated properly and it will leak there as well.

You just have to start checking everything over very slowing and one thing at a time. What kind of boost gauge do you have? Brand?

The boost gauge that I have is a LED Vacuum gauge with boost. The brand is Nitrous model 98478 bought it from Harbor Frieght. Should I get a different type of gauge? Please let me know.

Where is it tapped?

Team01 03-07-2011 04:51 PM

I hooked up the gauge between the map sensor and the intercooler housing that the turbo is connected to. Should it be at a different place.
