Hi guys, I know this has been discussed in a few thread before, I'd just like some help identifying something.

Occassionally I get a high pitched squeal or whine from somewhere under the bonnet, hardly happens, I found downshifting into third or second and giving the car a bit of juice in high rev (3500 - 4000 rpm) and full boost makes the noise last for a second or so.

It's quite hard to replicate. Anyway from a few threads I have read people are recommending checking the turbo exhaust manifold etc for loose bolts and such.

I've taken off the turbo heat shield and not sure what to check. Most of the bolts were pretty tight already, I did notice that there was a bolt missing on the manifold and I'm not sure if there was an existing bolt there or not? Anyway I half screwed in a bolt in there to see, took the car for a spin, couldn't get the car to re-create the noise however I didn't notice a small chirp in second gear that may have been it starting.

Anyway, see the pic below. Is there anything in the pic I need to check, and should there be a bolt in the spot I marked?

that bolt is nothing...it just holds the heat shield on

when mine started squealing it was the bolts that hold the turbo to the manifold (the one you can see in your picture actually as well as another one)...I tightened it with my hand and it was good again for a bit...

just feel around the turbo and manifold bolts to see if any are loose...

Had a mates car do that and it was a tiny split in a cooler hose (was the elbow under the turbo from

Memory) it would only do it under full boost and the split was really hard to find.... Long shot but I you don't find the other issues then it's worth a look :)

Mine did this a while back, ended up being a intake gasket..

sorry, was that the gasket between intake manifold and the engine head or the gasket between the parts of the manifold itself? pardon my English, I'm from Russia))

Squealing is from tight or loose belts African Americanachi. Have a good feel of your visible belts. Maybe lay of the maccas. It could be your wife complaining. Mine does. Its a high pitched squeal the whole way there until her fat cake hole get filled. Nah kidding, she is a beautiful 5"10' 26 yro bitch! Or loosen your cam belt. But dont do that cos you dont know what the f**k you are doing.

manifold gasket.

disconnected factory boost gauge sender.

checked intercooler joiners for pin holes.

checked hoses for splits as this has happen be for to me.

even had a smoke test twice.

the only thing left for me is the pvc valve and hoses to the pvc

I had pretty much the same problem as you have. I had checked all the gaskets and still could not find the leak. It was also happening at 7psi and above. I had replaced all my vac hoses & all new clamps. Finnally I made this up and found the leak in about 5 mins.

Remove your intake from the front of the turbo, Attach the hose with valve to the front of the turbo, pump up using compressor. (no more than 10 psi) You should be able to hear the leak.

(Engine off, It will not hold pressure long. Just enough to find the leak)

Parts used to make this are

1 right angled silicone pipe from old stock intercooler pipes (or from any auto store)

1 screw in tyre valve

2 hose clamps

1 plastic pvc end cap (bought from a plumbimg store)

      Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.

      I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.

      The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?

      I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.

      I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
