wastegate problems?

If I accelerate hard and boost in any gear, when i clutch, shift, next gear, back on the throttle, i get 0-1psi. Is my wastegate being stuck open?

to get it boosting again I have to lay off the throttle, wait a few seconds, then ease back on the throttle..

and..

If I accelerate at a moderate pace and boosting i'm ok when i shift.

Sum Ting Wong?

check your check valves one might be sticking open. also could be a solenoid failing.

Hmm. I had a problem with the check valve that goes from the vacuum chamber to UIM. i crazy glued it.. I'm not sure how important of a role that check valve plays.

I'm hoping its not a solenoid I dont feel like busting my back opening things up again!!!
