internal WG 14b w/std mani. i dont run it hard when its cold, so i dont know. when its worm sometimes just goes up. the highest my boost gauge read was .85 bar which = ~12psi only did that once usually the highest it goes is .76bar = ~11psi

Any Ideas ??

Whats the wastegate set at for that turbo? How much boost do you want to run? Try getting an electronic boost controller...If you want to run more boost than the wastegate is set for, the electronic boost controller will not open till exactly that boost and will work sweet. They are expensive though.

I ment the temp outside silly ;) not engine temp, when it is colder out side your car may hit higher boost, if it goes hight then what is should and then falls back down it is probably boost creep, you may want to try a different wastegate to see if the problem is the same

ahh.. no boost controlled.. and weird thing is my stock waste gate is supposed to be 8psi i think

and now it just hits 14 psi everytime I full throttle and then goes back and holds at 10... its a internal wastegate..

i have another wastegate laying around at home maybe I should try it out after i solve my oil problem
