Sometimes. or sometimes it just sits at 5psi.
Or even sometimes it'll go to 6 when fully floored, then drops to 5.
safe mode?
I have a Turbosmart boost controller. The black T one.
I kept turning it up to turn up the boost, locking it, but my boost still sits at either 5 or 6.
I have a boost gauge. Sits sometimes at -19 or very close to -20. When driving on freeway and i let go of gas it goes to -20 to -22.
Blew into hose that connects to my waste-gate, got a headache ( air didn't pass through at all )
I checked for vacuum leaks but none are found.
Checks couplings and there all tight.
Forge Bypass valve
I do have a intake filter on the stock intake plastic piping. ( bought the car like that )
I changed the spark plugs gapped to .028-.032
NO Check Engine Lights
I have a full aftermarket exhaust with a cat delete and the non-fouler trick.
Replaced Primary One o2 sensor.
My turbo seems to be leaking oil SLOWLY. ( seal probably, slight blue on cold start for a minute then goes away )
Im all out of ideas.
could it be that maybe my wastegate isn't letting me turn it up more?
or is my boost controller crap?
