hey ppl....

Got a serious problem, i changed the intercooler to a more larger intercooler...
finished it took it out for a test drive and now instead of 14 pound it goes past 20 pound freaked me out heaps, now to scared to drive it just incase it detonates...

any reason behind this. It has a greddy profec b boost controller

Are you sure you have not touched anything else? Check boost source line to wastegate or wastegate actuator. Make sure its connected.
