I Boost only 6 pounds :(

I don't care what NONE of ya say I still love her! <--- Golddigger

I don't care what NONE of ya say I still love my sync turbos

I have stock ones with 70K on 'em. I changed the engine out about 2 years ago ... it was boosting 14 everytime, but when i put the engine back together i got 6 and no more!

i put in a nice silicon kit and tried my darndest to make sure the vacuum crap was just perfect but crap! 6 pounds!

i assume that means the primary turbo works fine, but the secondary one's not working 'cause the gate's not closing?

i dunno... anyone have a solution for me? i feel like the yellow guy and my turbo's the green

the spring is set for 7 psi on on the WG. triple check you're vaccum lines.

you are most likely running wastegate pressure (7psi) I would think from what I've heard around here.

When you replaced your vacuum hoses with new silicone ones, did you put the new restrictor pill back in, or have an MBC (manual boost controller) hooked up?
