boost leak

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

need help, my car was running fine the other day and yesterday when i took it out for i spinn i tried to hit high boost and i saw that i was only boosting 5psi instead of my normall 20psi. so i went back home check and double check every boost line i could think of and i came up with nothing and i also zippt tie everything just to make sure and so i proceeded to restart the cpu and i went for another run and it was now 7psi instead of 5psi can anyone help me out of does anyone has ever had this problem before please help.

if you're still rinning the stock blow off valve, there's a good chance that its blown, and you'd need to replace it. 20 psi seems to be the upper limit of those things.

have you actually hooked it to a boost leak checker?

can you hear any kind of leak while driving?

do you have any mods?

Have you checked the rubber intercooler piping under the car? Mine loosen up from time to time and once it even popped off. Just a possibility. What other mods are you running?

that would only be the cause if you run a MBC with the stock WGA... if you have a spring mod, or aftermarket WGA, then it should still boost higher than that... unless you're leaking
