I had the same prob on my z6 turbo crx. it only put out like 2 or 3 psi and no more. people told me it could be a vac leak. I just sold the car. lol

i was using a faze boost guage but i thought it was broke so i went to an autometer and still the same i found like three maybe four small leaks between manifold and my turbo would that cause it to loose that much boost?
