Anyone think my problem may lie with the SSAC manifold?

heh dar

uh guys we forgot to ask about one of the most important pieces of info

yeah that's definatly a contributing factor, esp at high boost levels and the gasses can't get out. If you've got a built motor and have big plans you should get a real manifold.

unless its cracked i dont see a problem with it, supposedly its a "full race" style manifold. isnt the wastegate port right in the middle?

no its the one you see in the pic, Its crack numurous amount of times & ive had to get it welded back up, baces made, & repainted in the past. BUt its was boost creeping when i first turboied the car with the manifold, but doesnt creep with a more restrictive exhaust.

Your right about the manifold, I do have big plans & the motor & tranny is built so I have been saving up for a ramhorn manifold. This one was just for the time being.
