Guys,

 

Just driven home from work, opened the Supra up at bit on the bypass, coming onto full boost and all off a sudden nothing a massive drop in boost to all most nothing as in no power.

The car just jerked off the power massivley.

Driving it the rest of the way home it started to judder coming onto small amounts of boost. At idle there is a funny squeeking coming from somewhere, which seems to speed up with engine revs.

 

I think I know what it may be but I dont think I can bring my self to say it.

 

What are thoughts everyone?

OK....

 

I think we are in the clear.

 

One of the intercooler pipes had burst off, where the hard pipe meets the pipe that runs transversely along the bottom of the front of the car.

 

I ended up following tiny little spurts of oil to the critical area.

 

Thanks everyone for your help. Havent been able to hit full boost to test yet, but at least it boosts failry normally now.

 

As always thanks so much for prompt and accurate responses.
