Re: Celica GT-Four looses power during rapid accelaration

yeah, the boost guage climbs, possibly slower than it used to, but it never goes all the way up now, cuz the engine starts jerking the car about, so i let off the gas. the problem has got worse over the last week. but it has always been there since i got the car on 15th may, only it just used to kick a bit around 6000rpm when i was hoofing it. the pipes feel really brittle, possibly where it has been standing for a long time? gonna change the fuel filter wednesday, and check out the hoses. would i be able to see a split hose, cuz presumably it only opens up with turbo pressure, and i havn't got rolling road available.
