3rd-16psi
4th-16psi
5th-19psi

anyhelp figurin what i have done will help!

 

can't really tell by just boost on the gears. Its not stock for sure. You have to look at the map itself and some logs.

Some boost gauges are not very accurate.

 

ok ill try to come down to sj this weekend for the log how bout that?

 

I'm busy this weekend =\

 

ugh!

i wont be down for a while either

oh well

 

Your boost values aren't determined or set by what gear you're in. At WOT you should have the same boost values in the same rpms in all gears, but your turbo and wastegate don't have too much time to react in first and 2nd. So 3rd-5th gears should all read about the same boost in the same rpm ranges.

From those numbers it looks like you're experiencing boost creep especially in 5th gear.

 

what is boost creep exactly...i have heard u dont have to worry bout it in 2.0l cars!

 

Boost creep is when your boost just keeps creeping up and will either throw a code which will cut fuel for a second or keep creeping and cause serious damage to your engine.

Your displacement has nothing to do with boost creep. If anything it's worse for the smaller 2.0's.

 

I think I actually LOL'd.

 

every site tells me that the 2.5 has it worse!!! they say whenever u add a catless 3" dp to ur car u get boost creep on a 2.5 ONLY..2.0's never have this problem! but i dont know.. im gettin a new tune here soon.... by tim bailey hopefully!

 

... an untuned car will boost creep.

 

well im just readin what sites are sayin...and this is why im gettin a retune!!! Tim Bailey hopefully!

 

oh ya and for some reason now that i have a new clutch it is goin to 19 psi way less often!!! it goes to like 17 and holds!
