you need to get a boost leak tester. You can get the parts at home depot or buy it from somewhere.

Come on, man, you're acting helpless. We've told people to do boost leaks a million times on here, which means we've also told them HOW to do the test and HOW to make or find the tester. It's not something you buy at Home Depot. It's something you MAKE with basic parts from Home Depot. The link the last guy gave you shows what we're talking about...

Your redline is 7000, not 7800. 7800 is your rev limiter, but it's not relevant to this anyway. Shifting around 7k is proper, and your R/T does not effect the run at all.

You said AMS...did you mean AMS Tuning in the DC area? That's not the same as the main AMS that we refer to on here. Just clarifying which one you mean...

That's a poor attitude. We've helped you a lot, but you are still begging to be spoonfed like a baby bird or something. How many times on this page did you ask about how to do a boost leak test? How many times did you try finding the answer in search? I'm guessing the score there is around 5-0, because it wouldn't take 3 mins to get these answers with a little searching.

If you think it's ok to just keep begging for information while typing like a little kid (ur help n e ways????) without doing a single bit of your own homework, then you're sadly mistaken. I never said I knew anything or that everyone should know as much as I do. All I said is you should stop being so damn lazy and maybe be a little proactive. Hell, a guy gave you a link to a pre-made boost leak tester, and you responded by asking what "it" is called and how you find "it" at Home Depot. That's not too bright...
