7.3 hissing

Thank you for your help i. My 2001 f350 has 90,000 and makes a hissing noise when at part throttle and goes away at full throttle. My ebpv is disconnected and I just installed bellowed up pipes . My waste gate ARM is welded. I'm wondering if it could be the problem? I've checked my boots and cleaned them . Any help would be great.

I am a little confused. Your EBPV rod is disconnected? Has the EBPV been gutted or do you have a non- EBPV housing?

You say your waste gate is welded, then you say it makes a blowoff noise?

Seems odd the way you describe it, sounds like the waste gate is still working, somewhat.

You are better off loading the image to a host site like Photobucket.com, then pasting the IMG link here. I am not sure if you have enough posts (25) to attach pictures.
