boost problems... maybe turbo's going out?

Looking at your original post -- when you say "all the way to redline" what are you saying? What rpm are you upshifting at? How much time does it take for you to go from 75-85 mph -- that should all be in 4th gear at WOT, you probably just shifted into 4th at 75. I'm just wondering if you are pushing the turbo into thermal ineffeciency by shifting too late. Trying to help and look for more obvious things until we can get some hard data.

I'll bet your right. I just figured being that i was holding boost, to take it further and I didn't really know that our turbos just blow hot air after 6000rpms which is what I keep hearing

on the stock setup you finished making hp at about 5500 and you reach pk tq at only like 2500

I just switched to Forge and, on the red spring, the car is making more power down low, it's like pushing on a giant springy exercise ball of torque under my right foot. However, it's making the same ultimate boost and power, my boost gauge and G-Tech Pro says. It just feels stronger and smoother driving it around.
