no boost at 3rd gear
no boost at 3rd gear
The boost is strong most of the time(around 10 psi), but when you go full throttle
at 2nd gear about half the way(~4k rpm) and shift to 3rd, the boost is 0.
No boost at all.
And it comes back to normal after lifting off and wait for a couple of seconds.
If I push it a little harder on 2nd (6k+ rpm) and shift to 3rd, the boost is normal(10 psi).
It has been that way since I bought the car.
Any idea?
Thanks.

I had something similar.
Check the 4 vacuum lines under the cross-over pipe that goes from the turbos to the intercooler. Actually, you might as well order some new silicon hoses and replace those 4 to start with.
Let us know if that fixes it.
