DUMB ASS... I tried to fix it but its super fucked up!!!!!! Go get another SMIC and that will solve the problem. There's a huge crack in your SMIC that all the boost is escaping from.

Everyone he gave me a super fucked up SMIC and told me to try and fill in like 3 large cracks in the inlet pipe. I said I would try and weld it but its cast aluminum so its really tricky. I tried I figured out it couldn't be done. I tried to TIG weld it but the welds would not stick so I gave up.

Mario spend 20 dollars on a side mount and shit solved.
