turbo is acting funny

[toffers]

Well let me start off by describing what is going on... my cars psi seems to work fine as long as i dont jump on the throttle, or pedal to the floor but if i do floor it is spools up but doesnt go anywhere just makes noise and acts like it hit a wall. I have tried messing with the boost controller and bov but nothing really seems to fix the problem. Any ideas????

So are you saying your RPMs and boost go up but the car doesn't move faster? If so, slipping clutch is likely.

You most likely have a huge boost leak, also do you have a boost gauge to see if the psi is working fine or are you just using the stock gauge?

Run a BLT because this sounds like its just a huge boost leak or something is wrong with your wastegate.

yes im using a aftermarket boost gauge, i am thinking that it has to be the clutch or posiibly the waste gate but im still looking in to it, thanks for the ideas.

If the rpm's go up but not the speed than it is the clutch or tires spinning. If the boost goes up but not the rpm's or the speed than it is likely a big boost leak.

Get you a blt tester and fix those leaks, cheap thing to make, nice investment for those pesky leaks.

Fill out your profile so we can tell what mods you are working with.

Sry about the profile i just got the car and hsvent really haf time to rip everything apart to see what all is done to it but i will be buiding and doing a blt this weekend i will post the results

Well i just had my friend take a look at the car and we believe that it might acctually be something to do with the fuel like its pumping to much in the engine and its bogging it down. Now its starting to die at idle i know there is probably a boost leak as well but i think im gonna take it to a shop to do a drivability tune and hope they will have a idea to whats going on
