if exhaust is coming out of the dump tube, than its not an intercooler pipe problem.

either you dont have the fire ring in there, or the wastegate is bad. buy a real tial gate

my wastegate got stuck open once. i couldn't build boost at all. i finally just took it all the way up to 8k and it closed for some reason. lol but then it blew the gasket a couple weeks later. you should get the turbonetics fire ring style gasket from atpturbo for it too.

You should make a post that the wastegate is junk and just about wrecked your motor That is what most people usually do.

well got the car tuned for 5psi. but the car is building 5 psi but it does not feel like it there. Its as if it struggling through the rpm band. What can it be?? I am thinking it injector(dsm 450) but i do not know for sure.
