EVO 8 too many problems

Okay, im a newb, but really getting into it. after doing a autocross event on my last run i was hitting boost cut at 11psi(which is WG pressure), i havent figured out if its me EBC solenoid or the WG is bad. Also i noticed the OIL pressure is pretty high now as well... possible sensor problem? and engine temp is staying low hits normal(at or below the temperature sign) occasionally. and now another thing.... the SES light blinks fast for like 5 seconds when i turn the ignition to ON/Accessories. can anyone help me.. Im overseas on Guam, would love to solve my problems while i can.. drivingin her easy, but just want to know the problems and see what i have to do... Thanks for all ya help!

Get a OBDII Scan tool or EvoScan and a Tactrix Cable and see if there are any codes. it sounds like it might have went to limp mode.

You will also need a tune to fix the boost/fuel cut problem.
