hey guys.
(writing this on behalf of a mate who's having a problem with his turbo)

basically, it spools up, and when you expect the power to kick in, nothing happens.
its been happening for 2 days.
it's a t3 t4 hybrid with an external wastegate.

what could be the problem?
any suggestions would be awesome!
