hey guys, i have an HKS EVC IV electronic boost controller and a utec-stage 3. I took out the manual boost controller that comes with the utec, and had the EBC hooked up. I have my high boost set at 1.15- 16.9 psi, and my low boost set at .95-14 psi. my boost is spiking up to 1.45-1.5 = wayyyyy to much boost(22psi). after it spikes it drops to about 7-9 psi and i can't get any higher, no matter what gear. electronic boost controllers are supposed to be much better at holding boost to redline and prevent spiking than a manual boost controller. Does anybody have an idea of what may be wrong, or have experience with an ebc w/ a utec? Any help would be awesome

Thanks,
Arky

 

i chose to switch to the EBC because it helps prevent boost bleeding off as you approach to redline. I had my EBC on b4 my utec, and it held 16 psi all the way to redline, the one i had with the utec bled off to like 11-12 psi when i closed in on 7000. thats alot of power to lose, which i think should be preventable.
