Boost Issue

Well if it flutters, your making boost and your gauge is crap.

seems like you got the wrong sensor for your boost gauge or are u using that cheap trick where your not showing boost to the ECU and hijacking that signal?

Min normally say like -19/-20 on startup, driving is like -10, then goes to 10PSI!

mm my boost gauge is just connected to the ignition wire for illumination and then the pipe.

electric or manual? mine reads boost from the top of the intake manifold, built-in boost gauge in the eboost2

manual gauge.

comes off the manifold too.

I had a mechanical guage stuff on me couple years ago. Thing wouldnt go past 2 psi and the needle with vibrate when it got there.

k so far i have taken off the piping, got the pipe going from the turbo to the intake
no bov
no nothing
getting same results

just wanna clarify on the gauge piping

i got it comin off the lil thing on the firewall then a T piece, oen to manifold one to gauge. this is right yeah ?

Not sure what you'r saying, but your gauge needs to be plumbed to the intake manifold somewhere. So obviously after the throttle body.

well wat im sayin is that. its connected to sum lil black thing on the firewall too. not sure what it is.

pictures say a 1000 words.. put some pics up

u can also spray some contact cleaner or start u bastard etc. around and if it picks up in rpm at idle then theres a leak round there
