Hi need some advice and pointer! after doing a search i couldnt find what im looking for. tomorow if the weather good, im guna strip the turbo pipes for signs of leaks. i get that constant sucking sound when the turbo sppols up at 2500rpm. the car feels slugish at low revs with hardly any pull at all

can any one tell me what pipes that i need to look out for and add it to my check list? :blink: (excuse my gramer) :rolleyes:

windy hose that runs from d/v into TIP metal section
thinner windy hose that runs into N75 valve from TIP metal section
intercooler hose at front of engine bay near drivers side headlight
the TIP itself, but thats a tough place to check due to stuff in the way
2 lower intercooler hoses also

sorry, i dont know if you have an LCR, thats what i know of from my MY03 Leon cupra 180
