Okay, update time. So I fixed the coolent leak last time I posted. So friday night im out at a house part with friends and im reving the engine up to show my buddies the turbo spool. Anyways pressure found another hose that was weak (heater core hose this time) and it blows up and shoots coolent 10 feet into the air all over everything. No biggy, got a new hose in the moring and fixed it up and drove it back home. Go to chevron and fill the talon up with some 94 octane. Install MBC and crank it to around 11-12 psi. WOW what a difference, car pulls much harder now. Go to merge on to the highway and I go WOT in 1st gear. BANG, sputter sputter, stall. Hrmmm, for a second I think thats it, I blew her up, but then I remember the messed up tridon style clamp on one of the intercooler pipes. So I go look and wala! blew a pipe out of the coupler/clamp. I put it backtogether and turn my boost down and go to lordco and pick up a T-bolt clamp. Install that and turn the boost back up to 11-12. No more pipes blowing off and also my car doesn't make a loud whitsling noise anymore! I guess there was a boost leak from that coupler/clamp that used to be on there. So anyways its running awesome so far. Im going to datalogg it tomorrow to check for knock and make sure everything is doing OK.
Oh I also have a noise on deceleration when i let off the throttle (only when in gear) what sounds like a grinding or whirring. I know its not the tranny/tcase as the car made the same noise before, and I changed the tranny/tcase. Sounds like its coming from the Driveshaft. Would the carrier bearings gone bad make this noise? or a bad U-joint? When I accelerate I dont get any noise at all, only when I let off the gas. Also when decelerating if I take it out of gear or put the clutch in it also makes the noise go away.
