boosting problem
 
My friend has a third gen and I'm trying to help him out here. Whenever he starts boosting the primary turbo goes to 10 psi and where the secondary turbo comes in at 4500 rpm, the boost drops to 8 psi and then to 6psi instead of back to 10 psi. Is this a common problem? Any ideas of where to look or why it's doing that?
