okay, i was trying to put up a picture of my problem if u guys saw it you'd be like but i went to check the wastegate and i noticed something right away. on the compresor side of the turbo there's the rubber connector right there holding the ic piping to the turbo. that piece i got from homedepot and it decided to melt out of proportion and blow a huge *** hole through it lmao. changed it out to a volvo rubber piece and took it for a spin. bov = got louder. boost = right around 7 and now i know what boost feels like thx everyone for ur help

i usually check all my ---- about once a week, just to make sure all the couplers are straight, clamps are tight, feed and drain aren't leaking, etc., etc. a couple weeks ago i found the clamp on my oil return had come loose, you just need to keep up with the stuff so you don't get problems like that.
