Hey guys, Ive got some boost issues i cant figure out, its driving me NUTSS..Well, im not making more than 0.1 bars of boost (havn't tried boosting it yet). The car drives o..k with almost no lag until the time boost is meant to kick in, you dont feel the lag once your in boost mode, but both my A/M Apexi boost gauge and stock gauge show me that im running under boost, also the car doesnt have that 0.5 bar pull it once had. i have tried the following with no positive outcomes:

- Change all vacuum lines

- Change wastegate to R32 wastegate (as soon as i changed this, i had a boost up to 0.7 bars but with heaps of lag and backfires, so pretty much no difference)

- Change Intercooler Pipes (not core, although core has some dents in the fins which i doubt would cause a leak or anything)

- Replace Cat with De-cat Pipe (incase i had a blocked cat)

and....nothing else so faar.

i should also mention, i have takin my car for a dyno tune and the guys there tottaly gave up on my car (but back then the car was having some other issue which has been takin care of)..by the way, when it was worse then it is now, i pulled out exactly 143.2 hp...isn't that sexiful hey..lol

Neways guys, PLEASE HELP ME OUT, im wanting to mod my car but dont want to mod it and increase possibilities of a dead engine..

hey guys, found out that my boost gauge vacuum hose was almost off!!!. fixed that up and im now getting 4.5 psi below 4500rpm and 6 above...

its gone better although i thought it was meant to be getting 10psi with the r32 actuator??..am i not right??..

Disconnect the vacuum lines on the boost solenoid (located behind your airbox/pod) and join the two ends thus bypassing the solenoid. This way, the amount of boost you run will be dependent on the actuator; in this case, 10psi.
