Hey guys!
So I did my research but I want some direct help here I feel like a noob now (maybe I am)
Thing is I can't boost past 8PSI which is the stock wastegate spring pressure!
I have a Vibrand boost controller... this one...
So is not a ball/spring type is most like a bleeder type but it just have a venting hole.
I think this is the culprit of my no boost problem doesn't matter how open or closed it is it wont boost past 8psi and if I open it al the way out (almost removing the cap) it will boost to 9-10 psi.
Yes is hooked right!
Also if a unhook the wastegate line it will boost like crazy past 20 psi easily! so I know my wastegate is ok!
Could it be a faulty MBC? I mean they are so simple how could they fail or maybe I'm doing something wrong!
Any advice?
