Problem need help!!!!!
Hopefully someone can help me
Changed my exhaust on sat and put a sports cat on (cobra) and now when I put my foot down you can hear the turbo spool up and loads of hissing and nowt else happens in fact the revs gets to 3500 and never gets any higher. I know there is a slight leak at the first joint (doughnut gasket) but I didn't think it would make that much of a difference.
Has my turbo gone? I or could it be somert else
Thanks

So When driving you cannot rev past 3500 rpm?
What about when stationary and in neutral/clutch in? Can it rev then?
if not it sounds like classicgc8 is right.

When just revving it it goes straight past and when driving off boost it will also go past. It just happens when on boost.
