Im just curious as to how everything is looking, but need someone who knows more about dsmlink on SD to look at this for me. All I can say is, that I know Im getting massive boost leaks because its not going past 2 or 3 psi on my boost gauge, and my hks bov is very faint. As of right now, I just want others to tell me how other things are looking. Thanks guys

And another thing that sucks is, I have 3000 miles on new motor, and my compression is only at 150-155 on all the cylinders :-(.

Few things in order for us to help you properly

-Fix Boost leaks
- Even if everything looked in perfect order now, when you fix your boost leaks and go past 2 psi, nothing will look perfect anymore

Also, in your profile you state you have 560cc injectors, your fuel settings in DSM LINK indicate otherwise.

Start with all your boost leaks first, then start your tune from scratch again. Your SD table right now does not look very good and needs to be dialed in once you fix your leaks.

oh man I havnt updated my profile. Yes im running 660's now. Going to try a stock SMIC tomorrow to see if this helps my boost issues. SO I guess I do that first, and update my profile mods. Thanks

In that case it's okay thoughj as long as your are running pump and base fuel pressure of 42.6. If so then your settings are correct. But yeah man, do a boost leak test, you now how to do one?

Im running base fuel of 42.5 and also I have done alot of youtube watching on the BLT. im going to try a SMIC because ive heard fmic's causing leaks. Im running a 16g ebay with the 14b hotside and WG. I was told, maybe the ebay 16g needs to be running the 16g WG, but the nipple broke on that, so Im running my 14b. I can hear the turbo Spooling, but dont wanna read boost on my gauge or give me that power feeling. ALso I noticed, when I go into WOT my AFR;s go from 14.7 to 16.1 to 11.4

A FMIC in general is going to better than the SMIC, especially on a 16g. A BLT is very easy to do and would probably take less time than swapping to the SMIC. If you need more help doing one we can elaborate more, however, there are great tech articles on here as well as all over the internet on how to do it.

Also the 16g hotside is actually a better hotside than the 14b, the 14b is a 6cm opening, whereas the ebay 16g is the desired 7cm, however, you can't run a stock wastegate on an ebay hotside.

Might want to make sure the flapper on the wastegate is functioning properly, if it's not sealing correctly it might be letting all the exhaust through and not letting you build boost. Look into that as well.

Also, your AFR under WOT conditions should not be over 11.8. But then again, so little boost that that might be fixed once the car builds boost normally.
