Default Boost Question???

Ok everything runs fine as to my knowledge. My question is when i hit full boost and the WG opens, is it sposed to feel like its falling on its face? I know i juss went to building boost to maintaining boost so that may make it feel that way. Also if my dumptube wasnt mandrell bent( its kinda kinked up a lil bit) would that restrict it and make the car feel a lil slower when the wg is open? Thanx in advance.

no it shouldnt fall on it's face

a kinked/too small dump-tube would cause boost spikes.

post your setup

Setup is in sig and dumptube is 2 inch. Also i shoulda mentioned that when the wg is open it sounds like it stuttering (think thats from the kinked up part though). Also there is no boost spike it holds a constant 8.7 psi when opened. And its not like it loses power it juss stops making anymore so the car flatens out but it still going juss sounds funny.

sounds like your WG is fine then. Maybe you are blowing out spark? What happens to the A/F when the studdering happens?
