ORIGINAL: woligator&lt\\;BR&gt\\;&lt\\;BR&gt\\;guess what mayfair?&lt\\;BR&gt\\;i already did buddy....&lt\\;BR&gt\\;&lt\\;BR&gt\\;but if its a leak why boost is building quickly till i hit 25 psi???&lt\\;BR&gt\\;&lt\\;BR&gt\\;
&lt\\;/P&gt\\;
&lt\\;P&gt\\;&amp\\;nbsp\\;&lt\\;/P&gt\\;
&lt\\;P&gt\\;the exact reason I’m questioning your MAP sensor. . .it may either be gunked up or be bad&lt\\;/P&gt\\;

25lbs can be in about 3 sec max,really quick!
my boots are from BD

ill check as soon as possible drew and keep in touch about this but how can this prevent boost from building?
i mean if there is enough fuel boost must follow or map prevent this be retarding cuz it dont see enough air???
smarty on 8 it smoke really much easy on 2-5 on edge,if i got 5-5 on edge and 8 on smarty i must be so carefull whit the pedal not to smoke everyone its not fun at all

Only other thing it's gonna be is the wastegate opening on ya.

If it's hitting that consistent spot and not getting anymore, that would seem like a wastegate issue.

humm cumminalong i was thinking about that,but i never messed whit it,it doesnt prevent it to go wrong but when im at 25psi it not stopping abrutly,its going really fast to 20 then slowing down to 25 ,and there its because im really hammering it... like its at max capactiy......
but i know its not ive done alot of 40+psi runs and always climbed like hell....

ill check that too thx for input

Really, unless you have a leak at the exhaust manifold or the turbo flange, those are the only things I could think of.

Have you looked at the exhaust manifold for any cracks or shrinkage.
