I just picked up my STS turbocharged car. I am in the process of taking it home. I am having problems.. I can hear the turbo spool (or at least it sure as hell sounds like it) but my boost guage doesn't show the boost where it should be, my air/fuel ratio guage is sort of showing a rich reading and I do not hear the blow off valve go off at all.. Please help me...

Check your charge pipes, make sure none of them got blown apart.

My charge pipes blow apart if I don't get all the clamps on tight even at 9psi

Where'd you pick it up from? Take it back if you just paid for an install... Or are you home yet... Do you have a FMIC?

No I bought the whole car 3 days ago, had sts already on it. (Private sale). Can you tell me what a charge pipe is and where it is located? I cant exactly go over the car with a fine tooth comb until I get home so I am unsure of some of the stuff you are talking about. What is an FMIC? Thanks for your help guys

Just give me a call, you have my number. I will try and walk you through some things to check. You can call now; you dont have to wait until tomorrow.

I tried to look at all the spots of silicone. Everything looks ok to me, but the car also wasn't jacked up giving me full access. I don't know if it is just my imagination or not but I also sort of think it isn't quite as loud as it was before upon startup. If the silicone seperated at all would it be obvious or could it be a minor seperation (ie an exhaust leak)?
