I got home and left truck running. When I popped hood I could see the gasket between the throttle body delete piece and intake horn popped out in one place. I could feel air rushing out where the gasket was supposed to be. I pulled it apart and only found about half of the gasket, the rest is gone!
So should I be worried that it could have gotten up into the horn and motor, or is more likely that it blew out, like the piece I seen? I could pull the horn to see if pieces are on the grid heater, but dont have a new gasket for the intake horn. Also, if their was a leak like this, would it cause the turbo to sound diffrent when spooling? Thanks for any help or insight!
