What was the CEL? And check your WGA and see if its leaking.

vaccum leak?

I don't think so it reads good on the same gauge where do I find the wga ?

 

[voltz2049]

If it helps diagnose when I start it up everyonce in a while it is very hesitant taking off

what mods do you have done to your car?

waistegate is on the turbo it looks like a ufo with a vac line going to it from intake mani

I checked the wastgate, it seemed to be fine when i blew in the hose, the cel was gone when I went to start my car today? is it possible that maybe the tube that goes to the gauge from the vacum lines is cracked so it just reads as the boost dropping? im pretty new to this turbo stuff. Thanks for the replys

yes i would maybe replace that vac line going to your gauge cause maybe you like cut it when you put it through the firewall.. idk.. try replacing that..
