Grimspeed issue
I have searched and searched to see if anyone else has had the same issue and came up with nothin!!!
Problem:
Car is a 2003 Evo 8
My car came with a manual boost controller. I ran it for a while until I could afford a three port. I am running tephra v7 rom the one with 715 on the end. My car will make no more boost than wastegate pressure(10psi) I have checked the wastegate duty cycle map and it is 100% up to about 3250 then I have it set to 50% just so I could start dialing it in. Nothing!! I got all the way up to 70% and nothing. The three port is working(it cycles on startup and it is cycling like normal under no boost condition.) something in the rom is causing it not to build boost. Also the ports are hooked up correctly(verified by another evo m member local to me. We messed with it for a solid hour and a half and nothing!!! I'm stumped. We tried changing global boost control from load based to psi based and visa versa any help would e appreciated! I read the how to with the gm but nothing helped out there must be a table or bit I have turned off somewhere causing it. With the manual I was tuned on pump up to 24psi no knock but it was sporadic boost that's the reason for change to a three port(consistency) any and all help is appreciated. I'm about ready to take all my fuel and timing maps and copy and paste into another Ron and see if that solves it

@raptord: I am not sure all we did my mind is a blur from all the things we tried but I'll check and get back to you
@domyz if what raptord asked doesn't work I'll gladly post the rom

I figured it out when all of a sudden at 10 psi my cel was flashing sobi logged Wgdc and it read 0!! It's amazing the difference it made!!!! Didn't have much time to tune the wgdc map yet but my rough settings are 1000 times better than that piece-o-HUD manual bc!!!!
