Hey guys I am a recent owner of a dsm, 92 talon AWD, its fairly done out but i do not know that much, I know lots about the car, but im not good at tuning and things like that. Just wanted to know if there was someone in my area experienced with DSMs that would like to help me out, im having problems with the car and i think its a boost leak but i do not have the equipment to do a boost leek test. when i got the car it was running fine, somewhat rough cause it hasnt had a good tune since the big turbo got put on, new cams, timing belt, and cam gears put in, 3" gm mass put in, etc.... and now i can drive it like a normal car but at 4k rpm it just sputters like a son of a gun, its running very rich and i hear a hissing noise comming from somewhere under the hood when its idling, sounds like air.... but cant find where its leaking from

water and soap + spray bottle...if its hissing loud enough that you can hear it...you should be able to find it fairly easy this way. thats all i can think of

he doesnt even need that matt, if he can hear it at idle, then he can just let the car idle and spray soap and water and look for bubbles lol. same thing as using that ic tester, u pressurize the system and spray soap and water to try and find ur leak...but in his case its leaking at idle...so he can skip that step, unless he cant find his problem then ignor what i just said and BOOST LEAK TEST
