well this is it i thought it could of been the secondary injectors because they usually kick in at around 4K but when i push the gas in sounds like it wants to boost but it just doesnt it runs fine under 4K rpm's
Go get a boost leaker tester. They're cheap. Like 15-30 depending on where u get it or if you make it, but u definitely have a boost leak. If it were secondaries you would know by how it drives above 4k whether ur boosting or cruisin

but you know what bro, i did notice that once i reach 4K it starts to act up so then i shift into a higher gear so it wont reach 4K. once i pass 4K im boosting but doesnt boost cause of the problem its having.

is that ur dd? I was wondering if u figured out whats going on. I'm assuming u got a ecu upgrade if u got fmic( upgraded or aftermarket turbo)I don't see a need for a fmic on a bone stock turbo. Anyway if u do or don't have the car hooked up to a diagnostic machine. I kno I kno, wasted money but if it gets u boosting proper the 120 is worth it!

ok i started up my car today and with a fresh battery to give it a good spark and i noticed white smoke come out constantly so i turned it off what causes that smoke problem?
With the car cold and the rad cap on the thermostat neck removed start the car. Do you see air bubbles coming up? Sparkplugs wet after the car sits? Does the white smoke smell sweet?
