Boost issues i need solved before tuning.
So ok, I'm not getting any boost until about 5k. I think my charge control valve is sticking open, but my engine builder seems to be positive its caused by the Apexi AVC-R, what do i do, i'm on borrowed time here, i have to tune this thing soon because my FC died on me.

You should get a solid 7-8psi across the board. If not, it's something like the CCV. If you get 7psi, it may well be the AVC-R.
You can drive indefinitely on wastegate spring pressure.

seems to be between 7-8psi, I'll disconnect the boost controller from the system and see what happens. Twins are poopy when you have to troubleshoot them. Once the AVCR is out of the equation, if its still doing this, i'll know its my CCV
