Default turbo, wastegate,bov problem

Please no smart remarks. Thanks! I come here for help. I have been boosting for a month and never really had the chance to drive my car because of work,kids and WiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFeeeeeeeeeee eee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anyway Tonight I had the chance to drive it hard and notice that my boost goes 9.5psi and after I change gears it goes to 6psi then it goes back up to 9psi. I have a 10.15psi tial spring,tial wastegate and turbo is a garrett t3/t4 (42ar coldside) (63 hotside) charge pipes are 2.0 from turbo to intercooler and 2.25 after intercooler. I also notice that from second to third gear or third to four it hesitates a second. It did it twice out of 8 pulls. (I was looking at my air/fuel gauge and it started reading 10.00 wot then it went up to 10.5 10.9 and 11.2) I don't dog my cars it just bothered me so that's why I tested it 8 times!!!! I tried to adjust the bov and it's still doing it. I also checked the pipes to see if any came off and they where still holding good. If you all have any ideas about this problem let me know I want to get this fix. Thanks guys

duh turbos dont just put out a constant boost, if you shift you are greatly reducing the ammount of exhaust going over the turbine. is that your question?

and if you have your boost signal for the wasegate like right on the turbo and not up by the throttle then you are going to see a pressure loss on your gauge which i assume is hooked up to you intake mani.

Ahahahaha, is this a troll? can people really be this stupid?
If you don't understand how a turbo works, it shouldn't be on your car, period..
also, kill yourself.

Hey t_cell_t I know about the pressure lose but when I go from second it read 5psi one time then it reads 8psi on third and on 4th gear it goes to 9 psi. I rev to 8000 rpms hit full boost at 3500 rpms that I noticed. I hit 10 psi the first time at wot in second gear. Then when the turbo got hot it seems like it push 5 9 8 psi. Let me know if you understand

Let me ask you something marcj ? If I put the small red spring and the yellow spring in the wastegate then I'll be able to hit 10psi? It's funny because I used my friends turbo boost controller and it was opening at 6 psi when we set it at 10psi So what do you think marcj!! I don't seat on the computer everyday. Instead of being a jackass you can help.

what car is this on and do you have some stupid short gears or some ---- that inst giving the turbo enough time to build boost? what are you using to control boost?
