Symptoms: Boost is laging
Basically the car stuters when it normally spools up and then at around vtec(type r) thats when it really starts to pull. Im running a t3 t4 garret .57 trim on a type r on 10lbs and 3mm headgasget. My boost gauge still reads 10lbs.
What could be the problem. Where do I start?

Re: Symptoms: Boost is laging (GSR-T-)
what size a/r's are your turbo?
I have a t3/t4 57 trim .60/.63 a/r's, mine does not fully spool up until around 4500 rpms.
Possibly you have a vac leak? Check all vac connections and piping couplings.

and it has been running perfect ever since I have had the setup on(2 months)....the only thing that happened just before the symptoms occured was the intercooler piping fell off for a couple miles on the highway....

did u realize it right away and baby your car till you fixed it?
* you may have overspun the turbo
double check all the couplings... you may still have a leak somewhere.
