is this a wga issue?

[pavone]

hey, so just noticing my car is not pulling as hard as it once did, now noticing that my boost gauge does a little crazy back on forth when boosting in first but i end up holding steady at a good 4psi (pretty sure i could blow into my intake harder) then other gears steady around 5psi i used to be getting 6psi steady. then ill open up a new can o worms if it is wga, forge or atp?

(hopefully its not my turbo, possible a boost leak but vaccum holds steady at -20-21)

any comments helpful lol

Could do a boost leak test, see if you got any leaks.

i dont know but since i first installed my BG its been doing that for over two year. i who buy the ATP its cheap and looks and feels much better. go to www.*************.com you could find it there. they are pretty quick on you recieving you stuff. try it.(dance)

good call, im definately going to have to replace vacuum lines.. just went to pull the wga line off and blow into it to see if it leaks. she on there good and hard as rock lol.

that forge wga looks pretty nice and is adjustable, im wondering if its going to be a whole heck of a lot more difficult to get the atp on

at first when you do it. your are goibg to say what the **** to do??/ you need a friend to help you out. i hardly work on my car but i change the wg. once you do it you would realize it was **** easy. ok take off the two screw of tghe old wg and the vac line. i think u need 11mm wrench. once there of go under the car and use a thin flat head. you going to stick it in and just pop it off. just make sure u could find it and then just take off the wg. to put tghe ATP you have to line it up some time ypou have to turn it to line it up. once its in pull the wg til you could hook it up. good luck easy once you do it the first time.

Sucks you're in Ottawa, I think my WGA just died on me yesterday night....it could have been a cooperative effort between Canadians....

haha montreals not too far a drive, also it seems like quebec has a lot more speeds than ontario, whats the deal lol

Don't know, I bought mine in 04 at a good price with 0% finacing, maybe that's why. I think it's not the WGA that was broken on my car after all. The car runs solid today and it was raining pretty hard on Saturday when it happend, I suspect water doing something funny. Good luck with your fix!

yea, im not so sure it my wga anymore lol, just installed new vibrant exhaust and im seeing full 7 psi.. weird. thanks for the help all.

we have more speeds simply because we have the highest selling mazda dealer in canada here and when they brought out the speeds and MP3 the dealers that sell more get more...but they were mostly all yellow

FYI
