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?

Get a fuel cut defender.
Install a good quality ball and spring mbc. set boost to 14psi in 4th gear. enjoy the car. ps. youll feel faster spool with an mbc then without one. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
