Question Who has the Gruppe-s Up-pipe installed

Do I have a leak???I have mine installed with thicker gaskets and just wondering if it is natural to have a ticking sound when accelerating (like around 3500-4500 RPMS). I really dont hear nothing at WOT(4500+ RPMS). Also have there up-pipes been known to leak???

are you using an aftermarket boost control?

mine got alot noiser after i installed an up pipe.

check your egt sensor and make sure it didnt back out alittle.

if you do have an up pipe leak it would be this loud, nasty whistle, and should happen whenever you are on boost.

hope that helped,

Of course you don't have any problems with it. Look who installed it for you.

Yeah, get bloody drunk, bring your car and uppipe to my place along with the deed to your house and your pink slip and you'll be all set. hehe :devil: j/k



WD40, it works wonders. Also, if you have air tools it makes the job a lot easier and faster.
