Oh, I didn't read the post carefully enough. :o Did you leave any of that turbo control crap on the motor? Have you tried wiring the wastegate shut?[/quote]

none of the control stuff is left, i'm thinking that maybe the intercooler, or exhaust is too restrictive. i put my boost guage right on the turbo and its at about 11 while the intake is at 8. it could also be that the exhaust is too small?

You've got some sort of bottleneck. Are you sure there are no leaks anywhere?[/quote]

there could be something still, but i doubt it. it now goes to .5 and it will stay at about .4 til redline, which is ok, .7 was way more fun.....

Check all of the couplers before you start digging into anything serious.[/quote]

yup, i have one with 2 clamps on it, and it still isn't happy, but its getting replaced soon

The worm gear clamps like to work their way loose. The best clamp would be a t bolt clamp.
