Hi all,

I have a decatted P1 with a nasty sounding noise.
I hear the noise when i floor it as the boost gets to 0.5 bar this noise comes in and stays there until lifting off the throttle, the noise happens all the time in all gears.
I can only describe the noise as a metalic/metal/scratching nosie as though its metal against metal? I know its not the heat sheild because i removed that to eliminate it,could it just be the wastgate thingy opening/closing or is this more of a case of turbo slowly dying??

Many thanks in advace, Justin

Forgot to say the car has no power loss and has done 42k

Almost certainly the wastegate, shouldn't be too much of a problem, it worried me when i decatted mine!

Thanks Ron,

Is it like a metal clicking noise?
