Sorry Curtis I haven't had time to get on here to update this. Thanks for everybody's help in this matter and if anybody is around Nashville and needs help with there Evo, then I would have to say get ahold of Curtis "Awdordie" he is a good guy and will help you out as much as possible.

Yesterday the 9th I finally fixed the problem and now I'm boosting 21psi (where I needed it to in the first place, after added 3psi from mbc). And posting on the forum for the first time, was a good experience, besides a few people who just post to put you down and try to act like they know everything, but really don't help you...lol these people just need to stick to being on the sidelines.

And here soon I will be heading back to Curtis so we can start tuning and I will post some more when it's done so I can say more good things about him..lol

+2. I'm chasing what I believe to be a boost leak now.

The main problem he had was it was missing the j pipe gasket. I guess at first it wasnt leaking when he first had the car and then it started. After fixing that and turning the mbc back up some it was fine.

i have had just about every boost problem under the sun which you, Sparky, have helped me with. i live less than 45 min from this guy and have pm'd him about him coming up my way and ill try my best to help him and let him use my tactrix cable at the very least if i cant figure it out to give others an idea. so its all up to him. someone actually helping in person will always be better than words on a screen.
I drive 6 hours to get work done at English

Glad you guys figured out the issue!
