Any ideas why im not boosting?
Yea I know how to add more Pre load. Boost spiked and held at 20 psi. I understand I snuck out of bed early to go figure this out cause all day yesterday I was messing with it.
Eduardo, yours is a Latin American Market RS isn't it? I have a Latin American Market VIII RS which originally came with a JDM Ti wheel VIII RS turbo. If your IX came with a TiAl wheeled JDM turbo then I would say that you should be seeing 27 PSI by 3200-3400 RPM once spring pressure is optimized.
What can be the reason for such a late spool?

jk man, have fun, hopefully we'll continue with the tech talk and thanks for your help!
I was looking down there the other day and I was thinking I should remove the rad, but now that you mention it I guess it can be done without removing... Did you have the stock heatshield in place? is it hard to remove?
No removed the heats shields. The mani heat shield is easy but the o2 housing heat shield is tough! But I have an o2 dump now. You don't have to remove the rad but you have to be really careful not to poke a hole in the stock rad cause it's super brittle!
Since you have the option I say go ahead and try that.... I was thinking it could also be the o2 dump you installed, maybe it's not letting the wastegate flapper seal properly inside...
