Default car not blowing off and making boost late
i have just finished my turbo eg4dr and it is not blowing off at all. im using the dsm bov and the vac is ran off of the intake mani. did i do something wrong and im only running 6 psi on a td04. Could it be the fact that i have no exhaust that the turbo is making boost late(4 grand)??

Check all the charge pipe couplers for boost leak then report back.

Ill bet on exhaust leak before the turbo, or the wastegate isnt fully closing.

was about to sell the car
Sounds like a good idea, sell it to someone that knows how to turn a wrench.
