    Car feels 10 times slower, found this.

    So I was driving to work today and I realize my cars exhaust seems 10 times louder and annoying, and it almost seems like an airleak. At work, I get out and see this:

    Guess the pressure and rattling of my exhaust caused it to rust off.

    Would this really cause my car to feel a lot slower however, getting it fixed tommorow either way?

    Check your cat while you're at it (since the exhaust will be coming off anyways). If it's stuffed the car would feel like it doesn't have any power.

    Also, the factory boost gauge wont go past 3/4 now, so the turbo isnt spooling up the whole way

    Do you hear a lot of air escaping? My car wouldn't boost past 10psi and would get very loud when I tried to, turned out to be a loose clamp on one of the silicone hoses

    Almost exactly what it sounds like! It sounds like a lot of air is just going somewhere, and yeah it wont boost all the way, and gets louder if you try.

    I'd say check all your hoses and piping and make sure nothing's loose
