ok well here is the story i have a few weird things going on with my car.. ok here is where it all started i blew my stock 14B so i went and bought a 14b off a friend of mine and it seemed to be in good shape didnt have much play or anything so i threw it on my car and it didnt smoke. then a week later it blew on me so i said screw buyin another junk 14B and i orderd a big16G from forced performance. well anyways could i just have bad luck and the turbo just blew or do you think i might have a boost leak and thats causing me to blow turbos. But here is the other weird stuff on 15psi on stock intercooler and injectors with a AFC in 4th gear around 100mph my EGT's only get up to like 1,420 and it should be around 1,550. also my car idles like it has cams in it but they are stock. But i was told if i have a real bad boost leak that my car would cut out when i floored it and wouldnt run right.. so i thought i would check with you all cause i really DONT want to blow the big16g cause thats to much money to just throw out the window.. so can you help me please.. thanks
 
Have you replaced the oil-coolant lines? One of them might be clogged, or have an obstruction in it. Do you have your settings above or below 0% at 1K-2K on your AFC?
 
When was the last time you changed your oil? The idle part seems like a vacuum problem. Check all your hoses, and check all the ic pipes to see if they have blown off or have cracks in them...but you said you can holda steady 15 psi?
