Sup HT, i got this in the FI section, but no one seems to wanna help, so i brought it here.
Get the car tuned, everything goes perfect. Holds boost rock solid.
LS-v
AFI ramhorn
44 tial
hx35
s300 with hondata EBC and pherables PWM solenoid
boost cut at 24psi
1st gear- 12psi
2 14-15
3rd-17psi
4th-full boost-20psi
Get it home and it hits boost cut in every gear but first. As soon as vtec hits, pegs boost cut at 24psi
Turn the boost down all the way down in every gear, still hits 20psi in every gear.
Un plug the top port of the gate, holds 12psi steady in every gear.Still on the map that the boost is all the way down with.
Whats going on here?
NOTHING has changed from the time of tuning and now.

i hear that, just got back in from changing the lines again and checked the WG.
the set screws that hold the valve to the diaphram were non exsistant
Loaded the original map, ill report back in a few with results
Note to self- use loctite when instructions tell you to.

Sounds like a vacuum leak. I had similar issues. If you haven't madE any changes on your tuning program or boost controller and this magically started happening then it's a vacuum line broke or came loose and now your boosting to the moon.
