The use of a hand held pressure device ( large bladder syringe ) has shown that the actuators on both turbos do work.

No idea where that came from but it could certainly impede air flow.

I didn't see it at first, I tapped the pipe and it spun round, at that point it was obstructing about half the bore of the inlet. It's been in there a while. I've owned this vehicle 3 years, odd it's never shown up before.

Maybe it just moved from lining the tube wall to across the tube at some point when going over a bump for instance.

If it intermittently went from lining the tube wall to being a say 90 degrees, it would have impeded air flow. If it started spinning in the flow, who knows what effect it could have.
