my boost gauge shows about up to 6-7psi but my wideband is not going richer for some reason right up to this area then it feels like it kinda kicks in and the wideband goes like its supposed to, im not sure why....before it would go to about 13 or 12 as soon as i started boosting, any ideas? and i found out i had one prong plugs in my car when i needed double prong, changed that and the boost power changed alot feels like a different car, im not sure what that did but it made me happy!

:confused:

any ideas?
 
If I understood you right it says you are using double prong spark plugs? If so you should not be and that could be your problem. Also what is your wideband reading with the car off when cold? Any black smoke coming out of the car? How do the spark plugs look?
 
Are you sure your boost gauge is working properly? if your boosting 6-7lbs and you don't feel it, and then all of a sudden you feel the turbo kick in and the wideband shows it as well...sounds like just a gauge error. maybe i'm missing something
