I'm having the WORST CASE of boost creep with my FP red turbo. I'm gonna try and get a 02 dump housing or a external wastegate. I have a brand new wastegate and it doesn't even do nothing.

Its pointless unless you have a highly modified evo, which you dont. Sell it, take half the money you get for it, and buy a hallman mbc. Use the extra money to buy the SS 02 or downpipe or whatever. But ebc's are pointless for the evo's, especially stock ones. You dont have 2 maps for different boost settings. Get a Hallman and you wont be dissapointed.

Boost creep can happen in the winter all the time. Colder weather causes this alot. Colder air is more dense. Your turbo sucks in more air. Just turn down your boost controller a tad. External wastegate is going to be hard, unless you have a new manifold, otherwise you will have to tap your manifold.

I try turning down the boost because I have a Forge MBC and nothing happens.

Exclamation Plz Answer

I HAVE a question ANYONE. Can you get boost creep from truning the BOV wrong? Instead on dumping the air in the intake pipe, I saw it dump back in the intercooler piping. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE ANSWER THIS?
