turbo noise between shifts

[scheidt27]

when it shifts, nothing while building boost. doesnt feel like the engine is missing or anything at all, just makes that sound.

mine makes that sound too while shifting and if i am pulling a heavy load it will do it when it really gets to boosting i was told that my waste gate acctuatior was weak and wasnt holding all my boost but i have no idea i never fixed it and drove 35000 miles and it never did anything but it does sound kinda cool i thought

Just wanted to say my truck does the same thing and someone here on the org. described it like a pressure cooker sound,popping off steam, I was told a neww comprressor wheel(wiked wheel) will fix the problem. O a whole new turbo upgrade if you have the extra cash lyin around.

My 7.3 does it to on the 3rd to 4th and 4th to overdrive shifts. Sounds like air brakes on semis.

yup thats it. Anyone know of a fix besides a ATS housing for this problem?? Will this hurt anything???

After I installed my open element intake, my truck was making the swooooosh sound during shifts - put a wicked wheel in and it got rid of most of it but when shifting into OD, it still swoooshes. I'd like to get an ATS housing but it's freakin expensive.

yea i wanna get one as well, but yea they are really expensive, sometimes you can find one used from somebody on here or another forum, but even then there still usually anywhere from 300-350. Maybe i'll splurge and buy one with my tax money along with a turbo master wastegate

sounds like im gonna drop 4 hundo on a ATS housing, I need to get rid of this truck, my mod addiction is getting stronger everyday and with every visit to this website!!! hahha

[stroker27]

Great thread. I don't mean to hi jack it, but I'm having the same problem when I pull my raptor th. 02 7.3, AFE intake, 4" exhaust, diablosport predator on tow tune.What's an ATS housing? Does this spitting hurt the truck as I always back out of it when this happens. It really scares the crap out of me when it goes on. Thanks in advance.
