boosting/questions
87' turbo II
full rebuild
blitz sbc-id boost controller
ported wg
3 inch al lthe way bak
rtek 1.7
720 sec.
walbro fuel pump
few other minor mods.
So i just picked up my car from getting the motor rebuilt at the rx7store./shop . after leaving ive noticed my boost controller and boost guage both stay on 5 psi as i drive... even if im off the gas somtimes it would drop down to 0psi. also instead of hearing a nice swhoooosh noise coming from my bov like usual i was hearing a chatter/turkey call kind of noise. No i was not boosting either.
what could the problem be . wastegate? electrical? bov?

You need to take it back to them, a lot of things there don't look right. Not to mention..it appears that one vacuum line isn't even connected to anything ????
This was rx7store.net??
