Hi im trying to figure out why my sr20 is sounding like a suburu sti when i give it more then half throttle. Im really confused and my boost gauge says im not loosing boost but i know i am because it doesnt pull like it should. Could it maybe be a bad coilpack? Could my boost be turned up to high?
Could my turbo be going bad? please help!!!!!

check your plugs and your coilpacks and pressure test your charge piping.

Check ur timing too. If its boosting but no power under load. Could be related.

last time I heard a "boxer" sound from an inline engine was when a friend blew a ring...

fuel injector, Coil pack, Spark plug

My buddy had similar problems but the valves hit the cylinders

I firgure out it was just a loose fuel injector wire. No big deal which is always a good thing.

Damn man that sucks. Wasn't a cheap and easy fix was it?

Haha I'm still saving up! But congrats on figuring out it was just the injector before you took everything apart
