Boost Problems??R33gts-t 01-02-2002, 10:33 AM My R33gtst seems to be having problems boosting, it never used to when i first got the car about 10 months ago. It seems to boost fine through first gear, then as i shift to 2nd, it only goes to about 2 psi then slowly creeps back. but i run out of revs before it reaches full boost again. This keeps happening through the rest of the gears. I was told that my turbo was stuffed by a mechanic, so i spent heaps of $$$ getting a high flow unit installed. The wastegate was also modified to hold a little more boost, about 9 psi on low I also got a Malpassi rising rate fuel reg installed, but the problem still exists. , I have done ECU resets, diagnostics etc. and everything is fine, also had it checked by a different mechanic as well. So about 3K later, i'm no better off.What the F@#K is wrong with it. :mad: RazorGTR 01-02-2002, 04:50 PM It sounds like you have a boost leak. It is possible your intercooler or a rubber hose had shit itself. I would start there and work my way around the pluming. R33gts-t 01-02-2002, 05:33 PM All the piping to and from the turbo was all checked by the mechanics while the turbo was away being hi-flowed, I've checked the hose clamps etc. several times myself too. GTRFAN 01-13-2002, 06:08 AM I am having a similar problem ATM. We think it's a stuck BOV or a hose loose in the BOV's area. Getting the front bar taken off tomorrow so we can get to that area. I it impossible with it on to have a good look and check everything. Will know by Monday night, i'll post what we find. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
