Need help!!!
Last night my SRT-4 felt like it dislocated something in the accelarator. The PSI gauge only goes to zero and I am not getting any boost. Anyone know how I can get my Turbo back on and what I need to do to prevent it from happening again? I casual driving and it just went.
Any advice would be appreciated, I'm not car savvy.

Thanks,:banghead:

Check all your intercooler piping clamps and check all your vaccum lines to make sure they are all tight and haven't popped off. You might want to invest in some t-bolt clamps and zip ties.

Thanks for the advice. I just re-attached the main hose on the right (looks like it comes from the radiator, sits below the air-intake, in front of the transmission.) back to the part in front of the engine. Works beautifully.:)

That's the cold side pipe. I would suggest going around and tightening all your clamps.

Thanks, I tightened everything else that had a clamp, making sure it was fitted properly of coarse...I also invested in zip ties, going to work on some of the lines around the radiator.
