T-Noob needs help with some problems.
I just got my 2.5" downpipe and exhaust pipe welded today. It deosn't seem like my car is running like it's supposed to @7psi. It hesitates at low rpms (2k-4k). Idles @1.5k rpm, and the turbo won't spool til I hit 5k rpm. It was alooootttt faster when it was running open downpipe when we had it on the day before. (Spooled at 3k)
And another thing, My rpm goes up really slow even it's boosting @5k rpm. My greddy BOV deosn't make the psshh sound anymore but makes pshh pssshhh pooshh sound..(haha)....Any ideas why this is happening? Or is this normal? PLZ help..TIA
My setup: Stock LS w/T3 turbo, Tial wastgate, Greddy BOV, unknown FMIC, inline fuel pump, and FMU.

sounds like exhaust is createing a lot of back pressure I had this same problem on my last integra and it wouldnt boost over 12 psi and it took for ever to get there. Look into this. also what kind of exhaust are u running?

Apexi n1 with stock cat for now. (I'm thinking it's the stock cat that is creating back pressure) just not sure what else is causing the problem. And even it's boosting, I can't really hear my bov. (greddy type s)
