95 Jetta TD w/ KKK turbo. I have noticed that the boost has been going past the 15psi mark lately ( again ). I decided to hook up a little compressed air to check for proper movement and there was some, but not a whole lot. Seems to be moving about half as much as it should ( when compared to a T3 turbo from a Thunderbird I have lying around. It has the same type of wastegate ) I also noticed air coming from the shaft area, whereas on the T3 it does not. So it looks as though I need a replacement. I don't think the one I have from the T3 will fit. Should I just go looking for one from a wrecker or is there an aftermarket one ?
