Check the wastegate and blow off valve, make sure theyre working right. Otherwise, your car will explode. ;D

uhm. do you have your wastegate hooked up right?

make sure u have the bottom fitting right to the manifold. and if you dont have a boost controller dont hook anything to the top valve..

im thinking u got the vacuum line on the top nipple of the wastegate and it will stay open constantly.

could be a few things there is another topic right now in the same section check it out.
