fmic fitted - whistle sound

[Big_daddy]

Ive fitted a fmic 2day Took it for a test run and it dosnt seem right, every time i put my foot down i could hear a whistle sound quite similer when turbo spool up when you fit tip. the car does feel laggy and not that resposive. dont have boost gauge yet. Does this sound a like a boost leak?
By fitting fmic do they cause extra sound from the engine bay or no different at all?

Sounds like a boosk leak to me mate.

Yeh sounds like a boost leak mate if it's the uni one from eBay the pipes don't have any flanges on and leak there and with enough pressure blow the silicone ones off

 

[tommy2008cupra]

boost leak mate go round all the pipes and make sure there proper tight and if you used the ebay kit replace all clips as they are shite

 

[Big_daddy]

yeh found the leak, it cold side joint where ic and the stock hose joint, all the hoses have groves on them to prevent the sliding off, will replace all the clamps will T bolts instead.,
