Red face Constent Blow off of Boost

I am running into a problem with my stock fd3. All I have done to it performance wise is Greddy Profec B and a Greddy Tt. With the Boost controller, the car was running great at peak 14 psi. And would only drop to about 10. Here is my problem, now whenever the turbos spool they 1. sound like they are constently blowing off all pressure, 2. only keeping in about 11 psi, and 3. Seems like motor is getting a real work out and somewhat struggles. The oil pressure is fine, the temp is great, But the boost and that annoying sound is driving up a wall. Any help would be great.

What he said.

Oh yeah and you have what is known as a boost leak. Sounds like a big one so check:

1. CRV
2. BOV
3. XOVER PIPE
4. IC PIPES
5. EVERYTHING ELSE

For god's sake though turn your boost down, you don't have the fuel for it. When you get your leak fixed you'll be running very lean.
