no boost *HELP*
I just put an s5 turbo on my car.My compressor wheel is spinning but not making any boost.Anybody have any ideas i think the wastegate isnt opening.
(It made 4 pounds of boost on the first test run and wont make anything now).

Same thing you seem to have. Look harder. In my case, it was behind the UIM where a previous mechanism was removed, but never blocked off.
All that being said, it shouldn't account for 0 boost though.

no it wont go past and as i said before when installed and drove for the first time it went to 4pounds on 3rd gear and when going into 4th dropped to 0 and never boosted again.

talking head
missing circlip has made the wastegate arm fall off ,, and hence wastegate is blowing open
else sometimes low boost is from poor clocking of the compressor and the turbine covers,, effectively amounting to a longer wastegate arm ( and low boost setting ) on internal wastegate turbos

Well, if you hit 4 PSI then all of a sudden nothing, something has popped. If you swear by no vacuum leak, then I still think the wastegate is stuck, and/or a coupler has massive leak.
Then again "no tune", you shouldn't be trying to boost.
Maybe the turbo is bad?
