Intake Manifold leak, Wastegate diaphragm leak and exhaust manifold leak

every goddam thing leak. Wallet leak also dammit! All leaks causing issues with boost and tuning.

Sigh.

(Soap and water air test)

sorry to hear that bro. Turbo manifold leak due to crack or just at the gasket?

If you lazy mix and apply the soapy solution yourself, can go ace hardware buy the Ambersil leak detector I think RM50 like that spray on wan, very very effective and very bubbly easy to see leaks.

Wastegate diaphragm how it leak? Also intake manifold how it leak? :hmmmm:

A guy called Cokan is checking for me now. The intake was leaking originally (see photo) and that was because some overzealous ass overtightened and the thread is gone.

The wastegate is a fake Turbosmart. The eboost controller cannot manipulate the boost levels. The exhaust manifold leak was because of shitty material. It glowed red during dyno and the unsupported weight of the turbo bent something and now it's leaking there. Getting a proper support bracket done and repairing the manifold. No more budget to change to a new one.

Guys,

Let's say hypothetically I want to buy an Evo 7, based on the ad below is this a good buy?

If not why not?
If yes why so?

Hello. No did not buy the Evo7.

so leaking at intake manifold is just the threads? Can just drill and rethread one size up and put another fitting in gua. Wastegate replace with original wastegate. Manifold normal to glow red, and i don't think it's bent, probably a crack somewhere? You can hear the exhaust leak? How you managed to identify the leak? And yeah it's better to have a brace. Mine also have a brace made. Just weld the crack on the manifold and you should be good to go

So true. Quite often the best parts of a good story is at the beginning & middle.

the intake manifold is one thing - the other thing is the aftermarket manifold is leaking elsewhere too. Need to take whole thing out to check for cracks.

Wastegate being replaced.

Exhaust is VERY loud and very apparent that there's a leak. And yeah looking to just weld. The manifold is extremely restrictive though. Which is one possibility the EGT was running so hot. AFR and Ign timing is within normal parameters
