i have a 95 gst with stock turbo for now soon switching to 14b i just bought a 3" down pipe from buschur and i read in 'turbo' magazine that if put this on your car with stock turbo it causes a case of boost creep. ( where of course the boost slowly trails off)

my question is has anybody heard of this? or personally had it happen to them?

i have looked high and low on webpages for reviews on websites with this case but i have been unable to find anything

any help is appreciated thank you
 
Yes, it will probably cause boost creep (where boost slowly RISES after it hits a controlled amount--boost does NOT trail off). You need to get a larger o2 housing or port your stock one. Even then, you still may get a little boost creep with either the t25 or the 14b. You should port the turbine housing on the 14b before you put it on.

Before boost starts to drop around 5500-6000rpms, it will creep! And that can destroy the T25 turbo, which should not making more than 18 psi or so.
