Verify on a different Dyno or at the dragstrip and if it's really producing that low of numbers then I would perform leakdown and compression test. What gear did they do the Dyno pull in? Have they dyno'd other IX's? What numbers did the other IX's with similar mods make?

Good god! Drain your fuel, (or use it) and get some decent fuel. Perform another boost leak check, then perform one on your exhaust. While your at it, mine as well do a compression check. you can get the compression checker then use it to do a boost leak check, with a simple adaptor for your intake. Something is not right there my friend. Best of luck to you.

A good tuner would've known if you had a bad boost leak.





A compression test will do youno good but make you worry. IX's are all wacky from the mivec

What did the logs say? Was the car pulling timing, what boost were you hitting?

Why can't you just tell us what the problem was? Might help others in the future who are searching for similar solutions...

Also, how different do both dyno's read? I mean the GST dyno could read higher and inflate your numbers, which means something still may be wrong. I sure hope that's not the case and am not trying to instigate anything, just throwing out another possibility. If it's not the case, then congrats on getting everything squared away and making some solid numbers!
