Ok guys

i just spent the entire day going over everything in my car ...

1st I installed a new boost controller

2nd i replaced my entire intercooler pipe / turbo xs bov with a ic pipe (dejon) with the 1g crushed bov

3rd i replaced all the turbo inlet hoses

i went for a quick test spin

1st gear spikeing 23 / 27 psi
2nd gear spikeine 23 psi
3rd gear spikeing 20 psi

no matter what boost setting i put it on my controller (new) it does nothing) im lost here .

another issue is my car runs rich .. it goes to the full led green on the afc monitor and then the car sort of "grunts" out of steam and looses all power

i have tried everything and im lost

who can help me ? anyone ? can any of you guys at the meet help me ?

im in need

thanks
 
About your boost spike...If I were you I would go back and double check to see if you hooked up your boost controller right...there are a couple of different ways to hook up your boost controller. If it is a mechanical boost controller(Not electrical) then check your two vaccum lines going to the boost controller. You want those to lines to be as short as possible, the longer the lines are the more likely it is to get boost spike.

Thats about all I can think of right now but if you use the "search' button then I am sure you will find your anwser.

ease,
