had quite the scare today

[meltboy11]

I am drivin to my friends house, and I get to this hill so I give it some gas to go up, and all of the sudden I hear a pop sound and pressure release and no power.. I'm like, shit I blew up my turbo or something... lol
so I get to his house, and pop the hood to inspect and I notice 2 things... The one vacuum line from the turbo to the boost controller was busted, not only that, but I blew my lower charge pipe off, my own fault, I must not have tightened it down good when I put it back on. So luckilly that's all it was and everything is fine now. But damn, without the turbo... no balls whatsoever... lol

hehehe yeah first time I tried to run 12 psi I blew the lower charge pipe off the turbo thats when I ordered some t bolt clamps from ebay. 

Yeah a regular 3.1 has tons of torque but I'm sure it was down on power from what you were used to!

happened to me a couple times when I was tuning
it happens, just get the right clamps on like cobracmdr said and it wont re-occur.  ;)

I think that's happened to pretty much all of us at one point or another. I blew the lower hose off my black TGP when filming a video, it went from shredding the tires to feeling like I hit the brakes instantly. :icon_lol:
