Just recently installed a high density IC (CSF) and noticed there's a bit more turbo lag than usual, but that was to be expected.

What wasn't expected was, after my tune, there's a more apparent "wooshing" sound under throttle load. I drove it the whole day but I didn't get an CEL, but I'm still put off by the woosh.

First tuned turbo car so I'm a bit put off and whether or not this is common after the boost was cranked up from the tune.

I'm running Stage 2 91 Oct from BM3

Thoughts?

First Log shows multiple WOT applications

Second Log is just cruising around the with one short WOT

Also here's a link to the First Log for those with BM3

Also here's a video showing off said sound.

I found the problem.

VRSF Meth bung plug came off. Don't know how that happened... Ended up leaking boost air into the engine bay.
