I've had my forty up and running now for a few weeks, boosting fine no issues, and whether this is coincidence or not i don't know, but as soon as i fit my 65mm pulley, the boost slowly disappeared then just went, when we first fit the 65mm pulley anda boost gauge, was pushing half a bar, now nothing, what could this be? ive checked all the vacuum pipes, breathers, the belts and the pulley but i cant seem to find anything :/ what could this be??

Sounds like a boost hose coming off, when I fitted my 65mm kit the inter cooler hose was the issue! Just check all the boostclamps

Check the charger to intercooler pipe. Might of gone through the walls, after fitting toothies to mine the pipe blew.

belts tight enough.

checked the strainer in the intercooler?

id like to say i checked everything, might have to just take it apart and put it back together and see what happens

G40jamie

think its the seals in the charger :(

What signs of that? Usually lots of oil pissing out the outlet when you disconnect it.

Check the auxilary air valve that runs to the bottom of the inlet manifold
