this is in my st165 gen1 3sgte.
when i plant my foot to the ground, my boost pressure rises as normal, and sits at the point where i have set me boost controller too (about 9-10psi). does that for a couple of seconds, then all of a sudden it just shoots of from the 9psi mark up to about 13-14! almost like the wastegate is slamming shut, or my boost controller cant handle it.
the car is unmodded except for the boost controller and catback exhaust.
do u think it could be as simple as a broken boost controller? ive also looked at the vacume toobs conecting the boost controller to the turbo and to wastegate actuator, and they have some unfriendly bends which bends the tube in a restrictive way.
