Turbo Help -- PLEASE

[Ryan Gemmill]

First of all thanks to those who responded. I did make it home fine. After 
checking the Michelin Man and finding nothing, I checked the other hoses 
below the intercooler. The part that connects directly to the IC, below it, 
had a crack in it. (PN 035 145 760)

No questions, just wanted to post the results and say thanks, especially to 
Ti Kan.
