FD boosts to 7psi when set at 10psi on PFC.
Not sure if this is a PFC issue or FD, but I'll just post in here.

Basically, my PFC is set at the stock boost of .8/.7 bar.

The most boost that I am getting is right around .5 bar which is 7~ psi.

What could be the problem?

vacuum?
solenoid?
main cat clogged up?

?????

I'd check the cat and pressurize the intake after the turbo and listen for leaks.
