Nice little scare on the way into work today...
Was on my way to work this morning, and I had just left Circle K to pickup a happy energy drink from Sobe. I got onto the Causeway and had to do a little spirited driving to merge into traffic, and I just _happened_ to look at my boost guage, only to my surprise, instead of 15-18psi. I see "B" highlighted by the needle.
The B of course, being the B in the "BOOST". I immediately let out of it and kinda freaked out. The engine didn't seem to care but it does explain why the turbo was surging yesterday.
I haven't had a chance to look at it today. I was in a hurry to get to work, so I just drove normally for the next couple miles.
It doesn't seem to have suffered any damage, thank God.
However I will be checking into this problem when I get off work, and probably a compression test tomrrow to be on the safe side.
