Angry boost problem

Lately my car is only boosting 8-8-7.5
I am stock with just an hks dp and a blitz cb.

I keep the car tuned and change the oil every 2k.

What could the problem be? I don't see any loose hoses or lines anywhere.


Would a Power FC help this problem?

How would my car run with the Power FC, cb, and dp, with just a drop in k and n filter? I want under the hood to look bonestock.

thanks

High many miles on the car? Your main cat could be clogged.

Could be a clogged cat. If so, the PowerFC won't help that out at all.

How long has this been happening? Is it consistant right now?
