I've searched but haven't found many other threads with the similar issues, if there are any I apologize
As the title states, I don't feel any boost in 1st and 2nd gear.
Since my car was a 4g63NA 2G 99 year (Euro spec), after I boosted it with GST parts (you have my build list in profile), the car ran like crazy, in 1st gear it would rip, 2nd gear crazy power all the way to 5th.
So lets say how turbo works, get the rpms to 3k and you start to hear the turbo spooling and with the engine power there then + boost starts pulling you forward in any gear. Now I can't feel that in any gear anymore
I can hear the turbo spool in 3rd gear but there isn't much of a pulling feeling anymore like before and in 1st and 2nd gear can't even hear it nor feel it. + I can hear the bov release air when I let go (I have Injen intake pipe and open air filter) with 2.8 from turbo to the back custom exhaust
I do have a boost gauge but the issue is, it was connected wrong and it reads 25psi all the time so I can't see
I checked the turbo for play and its solid as it was when I installed it (it was rebuilt).
Maybe boost leak ; wastegauge actuator ; exhaust leak can cause this?
I also have ECM Link V3 just to mention
