You man what happen to the pix. As for the settings I called up Blitz and they told me to set the gain to 7-10 because anything higher will damage the turbo in the long run. This is under manual setting. Now, the next thing is i did all of the above and everything is working, but my max psi is just 12.5 now. Blitz told me it might be the solenid valve or boost leak. need more help. Will be trying buddies other solenid valve to see if it is mine or a boost leak somewhere.

Yo dj thanks.

What? I've never heard anything like that.

BTW, my settings are 68-70% duty/15% gain in manual mode on an sbc id3. I typically see a peak value of about 21.7 or so on the monitor.

In manual mode, tune the boost up untill you get your desired boost. After that turn the gain up till you start to spike then back it down till you stop spiking....... think my is set to 67 and gain 27.....and i hold between 20.5 & 21psi

Has anyone's solenoid valve gone bad. I think mine must've because now my car isn't picking up from 2000rpm to 4000rpm. You guys think its a clutch problem. I was thinking no because it does that on all 5 gears. Need Help ASAP. I lost my stock solenoid valve so if anyone can sell me theirs that would great. The dealer has no idea what i'm talking about even with a picture. NEED HELP!!!!!

it was working fine up until my recent post. Plus my car isn't pulling from 2000 rpm to 4000 rpm on all gears. The limiter is active, but it seems like it isn't working. I have it set to 21, but I see a spike of 22 sometimes 23. Anybody think it's the clutch. (Clutch is still stock and about 45000 miles on it).
