As im driving to the office I dont hit boost because im driving like prvrt. However when I want to pass someone I hit the gas and my boost doesnt seem to kick in the way im accustomed to. I hear it but it seems to boost then fall off a bit then I feel the boost come on again. It does not pull hard until that point. I know its not my clutch thats slipping. I doubt my tranny or transfer case have problems because theres almost always signs that let you know failure is inevitable. I took a look around and see no visible evidence of damage. The only thing I can think of is that I have a boost leak somewhere. Do you guys have any suggestions? By the way I really want to kill my cousins son. Good thing hes rich because if that boy messed anything up hes got more than enough money to pay for it.
Does it bog down and stall when you are reaching 3500rpms???? Thats happene to me when my upper IC pipe was loose!!!! And it won't spool up!!! Check the pipes and the BOV is it the plastic one or is it MR???

It does not stall and it really doesnt bog. It just doesnt go anywhere I hear it spool then boost drops and bam!!! Boost rises and I feel the kick im used to. I didnt really take the time to look at my upper IC piping carefully since I had to go back tto the office. I have the plastic bov. I figure its my bov so i might change it this weekend when I meet up with dr mr to go to the tuner shop by his house.

Do you have upgraded lower ic piping ?? if so i will check it when i put my buschur lower ic pipe that was happending since it was loose and i wasnt aware of it mad a really loud pop then boost will kick in again. i tighten it and it runs like a charm no more problems. if you have a intake check itand make sure that its around the turbo sometimes it will loosen and come off and leak and power will come and go

If you have a boost controller or boost guage check the vacuum lines.

No I dont have the upgraded IC piping. I will look at all the piping as soon as I get home this afternoon. I dont really hear a pop. I just hear the bov then I feel a drop in boost and boost rises again and im off. I do have the hks rs intake so I will look at that. I took a brief look but I didnt mess with it too much since I needed to go back to work. Thanks.

Yeah when you check the intake look at the vac lines that run under the intake i think there's 2 lines see if they are on i believe one is vac. not sure tho but hopefully it's something small.
