Arrow Anyone else having boost problems?

I have been having some boost problems for about 2 months. My Power FC doesn't want to keep the boost at a certain psi. Sometimes I hit 10 psi then other times I will hit 13 psi. Anyone else having this problem or is it just me?

Your solinoids or actuators might be getting stuck Time to go Non-sequential

Are you using a stock pill to control your primary wastegate actuator? If not you might be using a too resticted pill and this could cause your turbos to overboost.. The PFC is expecting a stock pill so chk that b4 you start swaping turbos.

There is no way I'm going non-sequential. I will never do that mod on my FD.
As for the pill that I'm using it's the stock pill. I didn't change it. It's pretty weird because it was always consistent, but one night JaySpec7 was in my car and that's when my boost problem started.

hmm...I think I'm going have to talk with Jay pretty soon. I knew it was Jay that caused my boost problem.

PS I know Jay didn't mess up my car. My post above is just a joke.

You know you messed up my unit. You just had to play with all the buttons on my Commander didn't you? The boost on my FD was working properly, until your *** jumped into my car. I think it's time for a little revenge now.
