I THINK I found out what's wrong with the car, but need your input and opinion about my findings. I've attached a picture so you can see what hose I'm talking about.
First of all, on saturday I decided to check my Supra again to see if I noticed something out of place, hoses, etc. Everything looked okay, but noticed a crack/tear/hole in a hose. I checked the diagram to see what hose this was, we'll it the hose connecting the actuator to the VSV (on top of where turbo #2 is)...........wooooohoooooo....:thinking hopefully this is it:.....................so what do you guys think.
If you look at the picture, there is an arrow pointing to the hose I'm talking about. I'd really appreciate it if you guys could answer the following ???'s I have
1. Could this tear in the hose be my reason for running shitty times at the tracks (really didn't feel the car pull hard on the 2nd turbo)?
2. Is boost being leaked from that hose, still learning my car?
3. What size of hose will I need to buy?
I'm getting my boost guage today, will install it and do a couple of WOT on the same hose, so I can see what my boost reading is, then I'll change the hose and do the same.
What are you all's opinions?? Please respond
thanks in advance,
john
