Boost problems

[gtboost?]

i just got the new accessport today, i installed and went for a drive..i was holding boost great, and it was pulling hard, but my peak boost was 13 psi. i had the hks ssqv on. i put stock bov on and tried it again same thing, 13 psi. When my target boost was 18psi. any suggestions? my mods are cobb sri, tip, rmm, racepipe, and the accessport.

You might be meeting your current request load with that psi.

Post some logs. Might want to see what your WGDC is at.

Check for boost leaks. What map are you running? With a test pipe I would run the Stg2+SF 91 or 93 octane depending on what gas you can get. Post logs. Is the 13 lbs reading on the AP or a boost gauge?

Is it cold where your are....?

No boost leaks and its reading 13 on the AP. and i live in vegas so no....it was after driving for 15 20 minutes anyway. and im running stage1+ ill trying running a different map tomorrow.

Load cut, boost cut?

What all is changed on the map from stock? Also, the knock sensor may be messing with you too... let's see some logs!

yes, best thing to do is log it so you can actually see where the problem is and figure it out from there!

 

[gtboost?]

ill post some logs later today, and its reading 0 knock through all gears

 

[gtboost?]

fixed! it was the boost solenoid

 

[PPO2Kane]

Interesting, did it go bad or something?

When i put my TIP in the nipple broke and i had to sand it down so the hose would fit right.....it was an easy fix. Well worth the 10 more pounds of boost

haha, that makes sense. gotta be careful with those TIP nipples. I'm running a GReddy EBC so I just keep all those capped.
