OH Did map trace kill my boost?

Curious, last night car was running great, good boost, good power. Sitting at a red light I for some dumb reason went to the MAP TRACE at the bottom of options 1-4 and a graph popped up. I reved it up a little and saw the little boxes move. Took off from the light, no problem. Hit PREV all the way back to engine speed monitor. Went to take off and nothing. No sound of turbo spool, no blow off noise, just a quite whooo. Almost like an owl. This happened to me yesterday but it was because one of the couplers I had in my turbo to intercooler plumbing was not the right kind and it blew it off. Put new silicone coupler on like my others, car was ok. However last night I looked and all the air pipes appear to be 100% as well as the vacum lines.

Is it possible Map Trace is messing w/me? Not very knowledgable on Power FC, yet.

Any suggestions greatly appreciated

OH Nevermind

Ididnt think I'd get that lucky. Just drove car again, boost gets worse as engine
heatsoaks and seems to be affecting blow off valve? Must have a leak somewhere I guess?

Sounds like you have a mechanical problem. You should post in the 3rd gen section and give a better description of what's going on and the modifications done to your car.

In quantum mechanics, observation changes reality.
Maybe that weed you were smoking had a greater affect than you imagined.
