hey guys i have a 92 2.2 turbo wagon that i recently put a 5 speed into and installed an aem truboost controller running 9.5 psi
since the swap i have blown 3 coolant lines and currently have a leak that i can't seem to trace
its coming from under the drivers side of the motor and i see coolant dripping off the crossmember and down the oil pan
i was wondering if there are any hoses in that area i should be checking or if (worst case scenario) i have blown a head gasket
Coolant leak under motor drivers side

Check the two hoses that go to the water pump. I am thinking it is just your water pump period since my car leaked the same way and it turned out to be the water pump.
Does your car overheat? Does the overflow bubble etc?

there is no reason why you should be building that much pressure to blow any coolant lines. unless your radiator cap is bad, and isnt letting pressure bleed off into the overflow tank.
did you check the lines from the motor to the heater core?

None of that should add excess pressure to the cooling system. The added boost might be pushing past a head gasket(s), if they are that old. Its not hard to check.
93 legacy wagon L, 22T swapped (TW imitator) now with five forward speeds. (Gone, but never forgotten)
