ok my problem is that my boost is not reading what it should. When I first got the swap done boost would be about 8lbs in 1st and 2nd and about 11-13lbs in 3rd 4th and 5th gear now I have 8lbs in 1st 2nd 3rd and 4th gear and 12-13 lbs in 5th only. The power is missing from what I had. because of the lower boost. now I had a mbc and had it set to high for maybe 2 miles and hit 17-18lbs pretty much ran open boost but not for long I hit fuel cut and removed the mbc. Now I have lower boost, is my turbo going out? The boost takes longer to build now also. can my acuator be bad? tvis bad?

humm boosting like that isnt cause by a bad turbo if u had a bad turbo your car wouldnt boost at all..im not sure about your tvis but is your afm is working correctly do u have any leaks in your piping(only if your runnin front mount) other then that you mbc should have help a little...humm..u said the boost is takin long to build might mean u are having boost leak issues..
