Why are you running such a small spring with a manual boost controller anyway. Is it a 4 stage or something?

btw. Joe, I switched out my wastegate spring with a 14 psi and it still drops off to 18 psi in the higher rpm's. Still got that ebc for sale?

haha im glad i didnt sell you that controller. it worked perfect when it came out of my car....i went to put it on a car on the dyno and the displays all jacked up now.

have you tried boost leak testing the car? sometimes a small leak wont become apparent until you try cranking up the boost.

I havent, but I've been thinkin about it. As it is right now, the car can't get traction until 5th gear with my bfg dr's. It would be nice for it to hold boost at the track though. I've got other issues I need to work out with the car anyway, like the clutch holding, and the tranny going into gear.
