    Wondering why I lost boost!

    Well I was wondering why I lost boost lol, no buenos
    I was wondering if this could be from heat wrapping causing it not to dissipate the heat?
    Going to hook up pyrometer as well , I've had it but have not installed yet . Yes I know I should have done this a long time ago .

    That's what I was figuring, I think the heat wrap held water and moisture and rusted through. Waiting on new weld flanges to come in and weld up a new section and definitely leaving the heat wrap off this time.

    Do you drive anywhere in the winter that puts salt on the roads?
