Car over revs and no boost?

[fast86gn]

I know I have seen a thread on this before but can't find it.

The wife was leaving work today got on the freeway and nailed it no boost and the engine just rev'ed up? It was ok just cruising but couldn't get on it. After the the first time she tried it one more time after driving 20 miles or so and the same thing happened again. She took it to the dealer this evening and they drove car and it was boosting fine???

We had them keep the car overnight so they could drive first thing in the morning when it was cold to see if it would do it again.

Tighten all the connections on the hoses from the turbo to the intake. One or more of the clamps might be loose causing low boost or no boost....Skip....I do not own an R/L, just a fine top of the line Sky....

Appreciate it Skip. The dealereship could not get a repeat performance. It's doing ok now? They said they checked all of the clamps and hoses, I doubled checked them and there all good. so I gues we'll have to wait until and if it happens again.

I have accidently bamged the rev limiter real hard in first gear a couple times and the car lost boost. A CE light came on. Cycled the engine off and back on and all was okay. Probably invokes "limp" mode so the computer must be cycled to clear it.
