Default 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?

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.

First ... what are you using for engine management?
list the details of your setup? injectors etc.

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.
