I have more boost!!!!!

No longer can I be called Mr. 2 PSI

I owe all thanks to Matt aka Mardigrassmax, he gave me advise on what to do and helped me correct the issue. Not only do I have boost but I also have more FP (fuel pressure.) I was able to hit 7PSI of BOOST with about 77-80PSI of FP. Now its time to get more boost, just call me Keving

Thanks again Mardi, now I just have to figure out the P0105 Manifold Absolute pressure/barometric pressure circuit malfunction (MAP sensor). It came on during my boosting runs last night.

Don't hook up a vacuum line from your manifold you retard. If the vacuum line is above vacuum, the ECU will throw a code.

That vacuum line needs constant vacuum...

He probably has other lines hooked up incorrectly (i.e. variable intake switch).

Dyno time!

Maybe now you could beat my old (slow) auto!

On the 5th gens (not sure if it's the same on 4th gens), if you hook up the MAP sensor to a vacuum line from your manifold, it'll throw a code when you boost.

Thank you for answering my question Ill check that to see if thats the problem but it will only do it only when I hit 10PSI. . I dont recall hooking up the MAP, to a vacuum line though. Ill check it tomorrow or Thursday this will be the final test since I wont be going to the track for a while, not unless Mardigrasmax invites me one final time.

Don't look at any of my old pics because I've moved lines around. If you want, I can take a few shots tomorrow.

250 FWHP sounds about right since My 4DSC dynoed at about 246 (6.5 psi).
