My boost guage is reading only 2PSI!!! Wussup wit dat. I dont have a boost controller yet so I cant adjust it. Can I just adjust it from the wastegate? Does anyone have any oil leak problems??? Because mine is leaking from the oil pressure sensor. Is the wastegate already preseted to 5 pounds of boost or 7??? The installment was really a pain in the a$$. But over all it is worth it, no more slow gs!!!

You need to check for leaks because there is no way it should only hit 2 psi. Do you have the hrc kit or the star kit? I am not too familiar with the star kit but if you have the hrc kit I can help you out. The wastegates are different on each kit.

If it's leaking from the oil pressure sensor on the back of the block I have a question for you. Do you have an aftermarket oil pressure gauge, and if you do did you put teflon tape around the threads when you installed the oil sender units? If you removed you sender units since that is a high pressure fitting you need to wrap the threads with teflon tape to prevent leaking.

You must put teflon tape on all the threads except the AN fitting (the actual oil line). The factory sensor already has some shit on the threads to keep it from leaking. If its not there thats probably why its leaking.
For the 2psi I'd check my hose connections and pipes first, then vacuum signals. Its not gonna be the actual wastegate unless its broken.

Well I checked the vacuum on the manifold instead of the one on the throttle body which is hooked up to my BOV already. Maybe I should check on the throttle body vacuum. The one on my manifold is my vacuum for my vortech FMU.
