good god another issue, i was driving to a mates last night in joondalup we installed a new metal induction kit =) then as i left i took off (not fast just normal driving)

and i heard a big POP i'm not sure were from it sounded more like a backfire if anything, then all of a sudden my car was a 6cyl... i put my foot down i had no BOOST the gauge moved up to 0 and didnt move no matter what,

but i could still hear the turbos spooling and when i released it no blow off valve, i'm not hearing any clunky noise or any high pitch whistling..

and the car runs fine and when i gun it, you can still hear the turbos going its like there is no build up of pressure..

so assuming theres no obvious signs there rooted like whistling and clunky noises, is it possible i have just burst a hose or something?

What do you mean by " Metak INduction kit ?" Not one of those Hyclone things you put in your intake pipe ?

Remove the exhaust at the front and check if you have an exhaust wheel near the cat somewhere ...

if there is no high pitch screaming sound it is probably just a intercooler pipe came off at one of the joins
