Ummm, so yeah….this happened today:
Was out around doing some “spirited” driving as I was trying to get some miles on the e85 in order to stabilize the OAR before I get heavy into some datalogging. I floored it and heard a loud ‘POP’ and lost all power. Scared the crap outta me as I thought I really broke something, but when I slowly eased into the throttle I saw I wasn’t building any boost at all. Figured I blew a hose or cracked a pipe or something. Luckily I was about 2 miles from the house. Limped it home to find that hose had popped off. It was on there tight, too, so I must’ve hit a boost spike (currently mildly set to 15psi for initial tuning).
Anyway, easy fix and I’m back on the road…I’m seeing Wiggins clamps in my future…
