alright guys don't know if any of you can help me her,a few weeks back when i was on boost one of my intercooler pipes popped off and the car stalled,fitted it all back together made sure everything was done up nice and tight and everything seemed fine,now it could be completely un related but recently i have noticed when i am coming off the accelerator on boost there is a kind of sucking in sound ,now it's not happening all the time it's every now and then but was just wondering if
a) it has anything to do with the intercooler piping
b) if anyone has had this before on their cars or has any ideas on what could be causing this??
cheers

is the dump valve vacuum hose connected properly? if it isn't, the dump valve may not be working properly and causing compressor surge when coming off throttle, but i would just go over all the connections again to be honest, and ensure everything is connected to the right place....

shouldn't do mate, not at a near standard spec. lots of people run the 'pidgeon' mod which is basically running without a dump valve....

Yeah as Dean says if sounds are happening everytime you lift off which effectively closes the throttle then it must be an issue around the dump valve or stock recirc hosing/unit etc :)

You may end up having to get it on a RR to diagnose it. What recirc valve are you running?
