Found my problem, Thanks goes out to Pettit...
So i took the 9 hour drive to Pettit and he found the problem withing 10 minutes. The car never even saw a lift! Turned out to be a faulty coil harness. The car before had been building boost but not accelerating. So, I was sure it was fuel or ignition and had checked everything or replaced it to new. Now after 5 months of troubleshooting, I finally took it to the pros and the problem was solved. I cannot say enough good things about those guys, they were an absolute awesome bunch and very helpful. I will not hesitate to reccomend or ever second guess having some help from Cam. My only problem is my spike, I have a dp, Pettit intake setup, random cat, and greddy exhaust. Can i fix the spike with pellets, a controller, or does the wastegate have to be ported? Pattern is 12-11-14/15ish.....
Dale what are your plans for this coming weekend or next? Also any suggestions on the boost spike? Everyone says that a controller will solve the issue but i dont think it is possible to compltely reduce the spike without pellets or porting.... It was nice to meet you A2z, how is that hood?
