I need some advice. After a prety hard drive this week-end, I heard a strange noise. Like the turbo is pushing the air outside the piping. The noise seem to come from the passenger side of the engine(maybe the waste gate???). And it only happend when I past the 1.2 Bar on the stock gage. It never come at 1.7 like before and it push less, much less. I test the bov, but i'm not shure ( it block a part of the air, but not all. Normal?).

Any expérience?

Sounds like the intake system has a major leak under boost. The intercoooler pipework hoses can blow off if they are not set right and clamped tight. Could be a hose not seated right or a hose clamp loose. Check all hoses and clamps for correct seating and tightness and check for any splits. Look at any hoses that may have been disturbed recently.
