your right I don't think the stock wga will hold 18 psi and that is why I think his gate is stuck either that or his gage is busted, and that is if he still has the stock wga. He is in need of a CC that is for sure.

severe oil like that on the plugs isn't going to be solved by a catch can. sounds like your valve seals are shot.
and there's no way that you're holding 18psi on the stock turbo with the stock wga. it just doesn't hold that high. plus if you've been doing that for a while that could be contributing to the issue with the valve seals, you're running too lean.....

to up date yes it was holding 18 it would spike at 22 then hold 18 everything was stock... valve seals were fine all interals were good.. there was a new guy working on it that supposidly knew what he was doing but i guess didnt he was messing with the boost and somthing got messed up ... then my wastegate went out i i was barying the needle bacl around to the stop and it held boost gage was good worked fine .... unfortunatly i dont have the car anymore i sold it and regret it very much but i made some money off it sold it for 20 grand bought it new for 18,500 as i believe i have posted before... looking at an 05 comemorative edition now though!! #182
wow you sold it for 20g? With oily plugs..... i guess these things are getting wrecked alot for a resale like that to happen.
