#36727, "Stop boosting after 5000 rpms?! wft?"


          

So for the past week or so my turbo has stopped boosting after 5-5.5, sometimes 6. I used to keep boosing till about 7.5 almost 8, i think? Anyway, i checked everything i could think of. My boost guage still works fine and says i'm boosing like crazy. Anyone have this happen to them and have any suggestions of why it might not be boosing anymore? thanx, xx

Isn't that a little dangerous considering our cars redline at 7,000 rpm? I hope you have some head work and a built motor. I wouldn't risk going that hard on a stock motor.

Good luck with finding your problem,
Kurt

How'd you manage that one? Do you have a 4G63?
