also check ur intercooler hoses, i once had a cracked (not visible) cooler hose, the ones going into the end tanks that stopped my car from holding boost coz it wud split slightly on high boost. other then that u said u have changed plenum seals etc... i dunno maybe turbo or actuator

yeh but wat did they check wen they say "boost leak check"?? i mean its easy to miss something... doesit sound like it has an exhaust leak? maybe turbo gasket (between exhaust manifold and turbo)?

hmm i dunno, i guess u need to try rule out a few things, may be a leaking BOV issue, i mean u are still running the stock BOV yeh? try borrowing one see if that helps

this was with the leakin plenum gasket.

previously i made 241 on the same boost a week ago. but yea couldnt hold 16 psi this time either

Some tuners do not know how to fit a boost controller in...trust me.

You will need to re-set your boost controller.

This is what happened to my AVCR...after a few weeks I lost power and boost.

Anyway...you may need to take it to another tuner for more in-sight into whats going wrong.

Hope I have been of some help.

the boost controller has been in for a while.... we'll see how it goes next week, hopefully they can sort it out

Question: What if you squash the Unit, without blocking the hole.?

As I need to make it so It does not release air back thru to the plumb back pipe, say when ur driving at -10 psi. or backing off the throttle from -0 pressure gentley .. this condeluded pipe is pissin me off! I can hear any volume of air, passing thru the Pllumb back pipe, + pressure or - pressure.

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
    • Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
