can't chip a US 12v, no ifs, ands or buts.

 

Yeah... no. You really, honestly cannot chip a 12v 2.8.

 

^^^ thats what i thought.

 

so uh, can anyone rule out my exaust leak idea?

 

we got off topic,


I don't think it would be an exhaust leak, I mean I have blown cats on my 12v and it doesn't sound like a spooling turbo. I wish I had my car with my so I could go check some tings out for you but unfortunately I don't .My best bet would be to get it scanned and see if any codes come up. Then post the codes here.


for all we know it might be fine, when I think about it on a friends mastercraft prostar, I swore the engine had forced induction until someone physically showed me the engine because it sounds like you could hear a SC compressor whine but sure enough, no supercharger.

 

I'll head over to autozone later this afternoon and see if anything comes up.

^^^ and yeah that's what im starting to think. if no codes come up, i think im just gonna let it go. thanks for the help.

 

Maybe a tear in the air intake pipe or something??? IDK. You might be hearing all the air rushing into the engine.

i finally scanned my car today and no codes came up. i checked the intake and everything it all appears to be ok so im just gonna let it go. thanks for the help
