Another TRU-Boost question

I have it all in an installed, but I am only making 10 psi of boost. I have the duty cycle set to 70% and the spring pressure/wastegate crack pressure set to 8.00.

Is anybody else running this EBC and what are your settings. Please I beg you.

Sounds like you have hooked up something wrong, and the car is running wastegate. Funny thing is, wastegate is 12psi, not sure why you are getting 10.

does the car have an internal or external wastegate. The Aem has different hook -up depending on type of wastegate , maybe that is part of the problem.

You probably need to keep turning the duty cycle up. That's part of the reason I got rid of mine. It was waaay too complicated to get it dialed in.

I think am going to keep trying. Does anybody know if the turbo has an internal wastegate. i am assuming it does but I'm not for sure.
