Re: Loud whooshing noise coming from Turbo on GTI 1.8
????
i agree on a possible boost leak somewhere... but your Diverter (not BOV) doesn't tear unless boosted above 17 psi or so. an aftermarket valve doesn't sound very different anyway, so no point buying those unless your running higher boost.
running with a leak in the pipes will get more noticeable over time, as constant boost pressure will open up the leaks. you should feel a huge difference in power, so if you haven't felt thatyet, then the leak isn't major. either way, go to the dealer. if they dont help you then find someone with a boost gauge and/or vagcom.
