A couple of days ago when I took the 83 urq to work, I noticed a slight
hesitation/loss of power when I would reach 17-18psi of boost. It didn't matter
what rpm I was at, it seemed to be more dependent on the 17-18psi of boost.
After about 15 minutes of driving the problem went away. So I forgot about it.
Today it did the same thing. Good power and acceleration, but when the gauge
hit 17-18 psi of boost, it kind of stumbled a bit. Even the exhaust tone
changed. I've never noticed that before, and have hit 18-20 psi on occasions with
no problems. Could there be a bad turbo/intercooler hose that holds pressure
untill the higher boost level is reached? The car is chipped. What I can't
understand is why the problem goes away after about 15 minutes of driving. Any
ideas?
