panelbeater/banshee, have to chastise you both, the intercooler cannot draw air it is under positive pressure from the turbo, so it will leak air

Damn you Panelbeater!!!!

I knew what I meant, puff or suck, if the hose is damaged it will cause the issues Annette is having, I hope she's not out there worrying about it some more at the moment

slapped wrist time.
i needed to take off my intercooler and left the pipe from turbo to it loose my error,it went but underpowered and smoke,on tightening it up all was well.
on my way home a nevarder was otherside of road with bonnet up,he says its gone into limp mode,on looking i noticed same pipe on his was loose,jub clip loose,on tightening it was ok.so conclude what you will.
