Car feels like its lost boost. I think it may be something to do with dump valve. Got a Bailey EVO item. Its changed pitch and there seems to be more of a whooosshhing noise on boost.

My mate said that the spring could have weakend off and I could be loosing boost from the valve cause its not staying shut on boost.

Any ideas?

nope cause Mr Arnold Clark kindly gave me a 2 year warrenty which clearly states that if the turbo and / or any of the components fail, they will fix it.

My grammer are fine. Don't insult my intellyjance.

Bailey dump valves are the best. Although I am going to send mine back cause I think the spring is fooked.

I'll show you the way at the next meet.

Get it up ye!
