Hi All David her form Ireland! Just bought my second st205 after a long absence. It is a jdm model in silver hks air filter, blitz dump valvea and unknown exhaust. I got a bargain when I bought the car so all is well. The problem is that the car is not boosting as it should! When I floor it in third it will only go to 3/4 the way up eventually crawling to just under the line.... it never goes near the + as it should it also not near as fast as it should be. Turbo is reconditioned so its not that just had new plug leads and distributer fitted due to damaged lead. I reckon it must be leaking boost or something simple as car is very tight and not driven much. I'm no expert so I was hoping you guys could give me the benifit of you knowledge.
By the way great site lots of info

you have a boost or vac leak somewhere. you can make a boost leak tester (google it) and find your leaks to fix the problem.
