AEM Tru-Boost on 5557 Turbo?

[5558DSM]

Hello again,
I just re-installed my Tru-boost again after 16g to 5557PTE turbo swap and it does not seem to matter how I install the lines it will not boost over 11psi. I unplugged WGA line and it boosts fine so it is not a leak just wrong line configuration. I read somewhere that this EBC does not work for 50 trim and larger turbos and so far seems that way. I was thinking of restricting the WGA line with something similar to a MBC as it seems there is to much flow to WGA. Seems backwards but I like to control boost from inside the car. Any help is appreciated.

I have no issue controlling my HX35 off of my Truboost. Check the routing, lines etc.

I prefer manual boost controlles. I had issues with tru boost, I think it's an ok ebc but prefer mechanical and reliability over fancyness.

The reading on the tru boost is duty cycle. did you try changing that to something like 40? or more?

and did you use the instructions?

Also, there are different configurations for internal and external wastegates. Make sure the controller is setup for whichever u are running both with ## line routing, and the settings within the gauge. It will explain in the instructions. Sounds like you're just runnin wg spring pressure currently.

Bradikus 7 how are your lines routed. I know that is my issue just can't get them right

I am running internal gate. Worked perfectly with 16g I had previously so I have changed duty cycles with noi results. Just can't figure out why set up the same now as it was with 16g now doesn't work that's why I am wondering line configuration for people with big turbos
