Best way to determine a wastegate problem?
Okay fellas, I finally got some free time to get back to work on my RX. I have a few gauges to install and things like that … but the only major thing I need to fix is the low > no boost at low Rpm’s. When I dyno’ed the car did not hit full boost until 6.5k It did not produce any boost below 4.5k. I suspect a wastgate problem … but I have looked at the wastegate and it is fully closed at the end of turbo. Where else should I be looking .. what else should I be looking for? Once I fix this I am DONE!! Any ideas and help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Robert

Its a brand new Hybrid, less than 3k Miles on it. And its boosts great once its starts to boost... over 6k RPM's it takes off like a rocket and I have to turn the boost down with my controller.
