Hey guys, Well I recently purchased a galant vr4 1161/2000. I noticed that there was a slight rattling/whinning noise coming from the front end close to the driverside area. I didn't think much of it and though it could possible be the exhaust or heat sheild making the noise. After driving the car for a few days, the engine seemed to have lost all boost. It's slow to accelarate and usually at 3k you would normally feel the boost but now there is nothing. It feels like your driving something non-turbo. Additonally, the loud whinning/rattling noise has gotten louder since then and something seems loose or out of place.
I've checked the upper I/C pipes but there all secured with no rips or cracks, the turbo has some slight shaft play.
I still need to take the bumper off and take a closer look at the lower I/C piping to see if theres any damage to them.
If anyone has any helpful ideas or possible solutions that would be great.
