Was having boost issues, got under the car today, all my piping was tight, only to find my intercooler was cracked along the welds for the 4th time, this one in a different spot. Looks like I'll be buying a new intercooler. Thank you Procharger intercooler for failing me once again.. Oh and I need a rematch for all those cars I ran this past weekend on the cruise ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif)

dam phil i would have figured after the second time it cracked you would have just got another one... also wouldnt you be able to hear a high pitched whine if it was cracked? ![[Confused]](confused.gif)
