will a boost controller solve my problem??

[neil_jdmr]

Had the same problem for ages now Being not getting full boost to redline.
 
Have changed the standard exhaust to a NUR Spec and a near new replacement stock cat.
Found a cracked hose from the UIM and changed that.
 
Gonna take all intercooler hoses off and check those too but was told i would likely lose boost throughout if it were one of those leaking.
 
Car is totally standard except hks intake and now backbox. 5k on rebuild with fully re-built turbo packs.
 
Boost pattern is 12-10-12-8
 
I have an Apexi AVCR boost controller and pondering fitting this and setting my boost setting to see if that helps to hold it steady until redline??.
 
The car drives superb and i absolutely love driving it but i just feel its holding back just where i want it to rip up.
 
I know i should really buy a pfc and get it mapped but i dont a have a spare grand after just getting back from japan and i would be happier if it was boosting correctly first anyway.
 
Any ideas guys.

i know most tune the boost through an apexi but if its loosing boost its more likly to be a leak id have thought? backbox n filters is the max limit on a stock ecu 2, cn u take it to a pro to look at? they cud prob fix it in an hour and your good to go
