Question

I recently put a Blitz NUR spec exhaust, HKS SSQ BOV and a Pipercross induction kit on my97 turbo. At first it seemed great massive difference in power and noise. Now either I have got used to it or the uptake at abou 3000 revs just isn't there anymore. I don't seem to get the kick in the back. I can hear the turbo spin up the same, but no kick.
Has the exhaust and kit evened the power curve out so the kick at 3k isnt as noticeable as the power starts earlier? Or is somethingn wrong?
Also I here a quiet squeking from one of the belts when its cold up Till about 1500 revs any ideas links etc.

Thanks Guys

This could be way off, but from when you installed the induction kit till now, has the weather gotten warmer there?

If so, in warmer weather the cars run less boost, which would be the reason you don't get that kick anymore. If this is the case, it should return to normal once the weather cools down again.

Cheers,

Wrexy.
