Car feels "weird" also noisy


Phewsion

Recommended Posts

Hey

I'm not used to how a Forester runs, so I'm unsure if this is normal or not (Was used to BH5 TT)

Firstly when the Turbo sucks in air it sounds like puffing, On the TT when I put my foot down you could hear the sound from the air being sucked in , in the Forester you hear it but it sounds weird, E.g if u turn on a vaccuum cleaner and quickly cup and uncup the end (Not sure how to describe it any other way), Also you can't feel the turbo kick in just hear it

Second, Noisy injectors I think, I've watched youtube clips of BEB and it doesn't sound like that, just a loud tapping and it goes in time with the turbo puff (Makes the noise on and off boost tho, just on boost the First problem is in perfect sync with tap tap noise) Similar to

just not as noisy

The original owner ran it on 91 for about a month before I got it, I've had it fully serviced, new oil belts etc.. I've replaced the spark plugs and the leads and I run it on 98 now,

Is the turbo going the way of the dodo, I don't even know what sort of turbo it is, do I replace it with a 2nd hand one or is it rebuildable or should I upgrade it (if it's poked)

Or are the Injectors poked?

Or is it something else entirely?

Thanks

Update: After driving around the puffing I thought it was is more of a Flutter, so does that point at the Wastegate now?

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
