Boost Fixed!!
well... kinda
I pulled off my upper intake manifold. No hoses popped off or missing!!!!! Traced all the hoses I could. I would have felt used if I let PFS take my $500 for a hose job and not fix the problem. But, When I was putting the manifold back on I noticed a check valve reversed and the wastegate solenoid connector was mixed up with the turbo precontrol connector. After doing all that to the car I went out for a drive... saw it still dropped.. thought no luck. Just a few days ago I took it up to like 6k and noticed the psi dropped, not to zero, but to 2 then back up to 5!! So I am pretty sure this problem will be a little easier to work on. I am thinking that its a clogged midpipe or problems with the TCA. I have looked at the TCA and can't see too much wrong. When I had the car up at a mechanic he said the exhaust flow was kinda weak, also when I went to get my emissions it came up low.. maybe its because i still have both cats on. So next on the list is midpipe, downpipe, and Apexi PFC.
