low power, loud noise and loosing coolant
OK, I was driving down the road around 70. Accelerated to pass a car and suddenly under boost, it souded like a train horn went off under the hood. I only hear the noise when boost hit 5lbs or greater. Seems to be loosing coolant from the from of the motor some where. The noise sounds identical to a train horn and seems to come from the front of the motor. Checked for leaks and couldnt find it. Thinking maybe the intake or something similar. Any Ideas?????

if you are loosing coolant its likely a head gasket. whats happening is some compression is being lost into the cooling system over pressuring it. the boost increases the compression there by pushing compression past a weak gasket. the noise your hearing could be an intercooler hose just tighten them and see. if its not the coolant cap makes a similar noise when over pressured. if left alone it will get worse and the bearing in your water pump is next.
