Hey guys I finally almost got my car the way i want it, but now I'm having a bit of a problem. My boost was at 18 pounds and currently dropped to 14lbs and holds that max till redline. Now the boost won't pick up anywhere over 14lbs and the first thing that came to my mind was boost leak. I checked all the hoses and everything was connected. I even took it in to a shop and they said it was all good and tight as well and my boost controller was still set right. They informed me that if the clutch starts to slip I could see a decrease in boost.... any comments on this statement or any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks a lot guys. Mod list is as follows. Agp 3147kit rc 750cc high flow injectors agp CAI nology hotwires HKS SSQ BOV 3 in. turboback exhaust Agp upper and lower hard pipes Monster spearco FMIC shorthrow shifter Apexi SAFC II AEM TRU boost gauge type boost controller AEM Wideband AFR gauge MSD tach adapter Autometer shift lite Walbro 255 fuel pump Boomba motor mounts .... think thats most of em any input would be greatly appreciated everyone and thank you for the help.
damm joey, havent seen you in a while, looks like you've been busy. have you accually hooked up a boost leak tester to it??
i'm gonna ask the same question as nevin, have you actually put a boost leak tester on the car? if not then you have a leak. what shop did you take it to?
I know I haven't seen you guys in a while man it sucks, haven't stopped workin on the car yet though. I haven't hooked a boost leak tester up yet, but i will today sometime and update. I'm taking my car to solid tech btw. thanks for the replies guys
Ok well I just replaced all the vacuum lines and tightened everything and it seems much better now. All I have left is to install the fuel return line kit that's on the way and turn the boost up. Thanks for the replies and the help everyone you guys are awesome.
