Help-Boost Problems

[marxt2]

Hey guys can anyone help??

I was having a burn at the weekend and everything was fine. I then stopped the car for a couple of minutes, got back in and now it won\'t boost past 7PSI on either turbo?? The car is running fine but just won\'t give me full boost!
I am usin Apexi PFC, Profec B, HKS Induction and cat back.

Help!!!

have you got any strange noises comming from the engine? Have you check any pipes, usually its on of the two pipe connected to the little black box just under the strut brace (cant remember the name). Popped off pipe/split pipe is usually the cause

Yeh, I \'ve checked all the pipes I can see but nothing seems out of place and the thing sounds alright?? BOV seems okay and the wastegate must be okay as it is boosting straight up to 7PSI but nothing is holding it shut to gain more?? I will keep looking before I have to start stripping everything to get to the solenoids.

Check all your hoses and pipes might have either popped something off or have a whole somewhere along the system. If you have a boost controller it might have a fault with it perhaps, sometimes these can start to act funny in the hot weather.

As you are in Stoke you should pop up to WGT they are in Northwich approx 40 mins from you and are top rotary experts.

Thanks Gurg. I will keep looking as I want to save the expense of going to Pip\'s as I have other plans to spend some money with him in the near future. I have just bought a silicone hose kit but I am building up the courage to start the long replacement process but I guess I might as well get on with it now!
