mins on the top pod of my dual gauge pillar thingy. i have to check it more often then my tach or speedo cause its uncontrolled and has gone as hgih as 17psi on a stock system. i have to keep it at or below 10 so it requires constant attention.

shouldnt porting the wastegate have solved ur problem

 

mines on the column, dont like the pillar



mike

 

mines on ur sisters benz

 

i dunno i was told the wastegate was ported, and everything is setup correctly and it just flies up to 15psi or more if i keep on it, so i just stay away form the gas pedal....im looking into a boost controlle as soon as i finally arrange to grab my fmic.

oh wait...my bad...thats me on ur sister....not the guage on her car

 

17 PSI!! Its a good thing your at this forum or else you would have blown your engine. Anything over 15 PSI is critical.

yes believe me i know this.



i havent redlined any gear above 2nd gear since i got the car thats how bad the creep is. the 17psi shot i had only happen once for a few seconds before i relized how high the boost was. it's spiked to 15 a couple times when i released the gas, but generalyly im stock below 5k rpms to keep it at or under 10 psi.



i think someone put notstock injectors in my car and evilt2 just didnt know or something cause ask anyone who drove behind me, it wreaks of fuel and launches fireballs. THe car still pulls strong as hell too so the engine isnt shot, altho i think my oil pan is leaking oil i have to get it on a lift and check over everything tho.
