boost gauge and boost controller problem!

today I was driving my car and i decided to do a few 1-2 gear pulls. so I looked at the boost gauge and it read 12psi. I looked the the peak boost on my greddy boost controller and it said 12.5psi. what may be causing this?

Re: boost gauge and boost controller problem!

IF you have an EBC that may be your problem. Those things are nitoriously unreliable. I would trust your boost guage before your EBC.

Another possibility is the vac line to the guage/sending unit may be slightly kinked. Check the guage lines.

If the lines are all good you know it's just your EBC.

Re: boost gauge and boost controller problem!

I love the ebc that I had and I will never go back to a mbc mostly because I'm lazy but also because its nice to be able to adjust boost on the fly. I actually might be getting my hsk evc back from the guy that bought my car because he cant figure it out lol
