pipe from turbo to intercooler popped off, now i have vaccum of 20

[idahotuner]

one of my intercool pipes , the one going from the turbo to the intercooler wasnt tight enough and came off while driving. now when the car idles but it isnt at 0boost it is at 20 vaccum. how do i get it back to normal at iddle?

Did you put the pipe back and tighten the clamp because 20 vacum sounds good to me. I've been told you should at least have between 15-20 vacum reading on your boost gauge at idle and when your in boost it should go up to whatever psi your boosting.

i hooked the pipe back up, but it just didnt seem like it had as much power when it spooled up, and the turbo kicked in. like even when i am driving and just crusing it reads 20 vaccum until i stomp on it then it goes up.

the motor is runing rich, idiling at about 1100 rpms, i am not sure how to adjust this. it was runing perfect before the pipe popped off. i need to figure this out.

Everthing working again. the hot pipe from turbo keeps popping off though, no matter how tight i thighten the the clamp. so i need to figure out some way to get it to say on.

It should have a lip or bead on the end of the pipe to keep the pipe from slipping off the piping. If it is steel piping take it to any muffler shop and ask them to run a bead around it (for $10 probably). If it is aluminum you will need to call around to find someone that can weld aluminum. My marina and garage both have spool guns with aluminum wire but most garages will not your best bet is either a welding contractor or a boat marina.
