I pu tmy new turbos in a week or so ago and a couple days ago, I put in a needle/bleeder valve in the wastegate control line...I think thats the right line...its the one where you are supposed to install a boost controller. (I was overboosting like crazy before about 15-20 psi...of course not WOT...as I was testing it) now I get hardly any transition to the second turbo...if at all it happens around 5k rpm and then drops to about 5 or 6 psi and fluctuates between 5 and 6 (and the car gets kind of jerky...but im not even close to fuel cut??). I checked all the lines to make sure they were connected right and they appear to be...is it possible that I did not bolt them in correctly? or what??



my mods are:

Intake, downpipe, and cat-back. Have PFC but waiting on my tuner so I dont blow my car up...



Thanks for any advice,

Sean

there are two nipples on the wastegate actuator... make sure that the nipple that is pointing towards the engine (has a hose going to the boost control solenoid) is capped off, and make sure that the hose that used to be on the nipple is plugged also.

if you dont have that nipple plugged, the boost will just keep goin up and up and up...... you can ask bobby (rfreeman27), he had the same problem yesturday
