Ok so before my car died my boost gauge at the most i ever noticed read about .9 bars. calculated thats about 13 psi. i bought an upgraded ct26 with a larger compressor wheel from brashboy on ebay. im not sure what the wastegate is set at but this seems really high. i dont want to wreck anything internal and only want to run about 8 or 9 psi. also i have a custom 3 inch exhaust that i personally built with a high flow xlerator muffler with a single 3" inlet and dual 3" outlets. i know im running some major boost creep and am wondering how best to stop that and add some backpreassure to the turbo to slow freewheel.

I wish there was someone in this area who knew the 3S better than me besides Chris K who I couldn't even afford to have look at the hood of my car much less diagnose anything.
No boost leaks
the only code I have is the speedo one
Ignition system is new
Even when I was running open downpipe I had this problem
Wouldn't have a clue about the Tvsv system
Timing and Tbelt is correct and double checked by Toyota dealership I trust and know me well

Its a safety feature so that people like you don't end up killing themselves or everyone around them.

How's the turbo look? Fins Okay? No Play? Could the waste gate be stuck open a little? It HAS to be some kind exhaust side bugaboo keeping your boost way down....

It will take him a moment to realize that he's about to make a 180 degree turn at speed, but you will be ready for it. Brace for the g's, and fast heel-toe work.
