It does feel alot more torquey down low just not as much power up top.

this is the diagram that was used

and thats whats confusing me, the fluttering noise with my BOV on.

i will check but at w0t you can hear the bov like its leaking or something

Well it was never there before the mbc, now i hardly hear my bov and it is extremly loud fluttering...wastegate?

I had two of my "mechanic" buddys install a aftermarket boost gauge and controller on my car today.   I have the top gun 160 chip, my plan was to run 12psi but so far I cant get it above 9 psi on the gauge.  Also it seems as ive lost all top end power, the BOV is opeining at WOT and there is a fluttering sound when I let off the gas.  Any suggestions on what could have gone wrong?

Chip it is! :icon_mrgreen:

More questions from me haha.  So, off the line this car is great and holds its own very well. At higher speeds however(50mph or so) it seems like it looses alot of its power and its not so great from there.  I have raced two of my buddys 5.0  and I can stay with them off the line from a dig but then they catch up to me and put lengths on me the faster we go.  Also from about a 20mph roll i got tore up but that could also be my fault for driving crappy :)  Ok so here is where my question comes in.  Is this normal for these cars and also what should i look at to improve the cars "higher speed' acceleration.

Yes that would be me.

Does any one here do custom tunes?  I have the jeffm tpg160 chip right now but want to try something differnt.

Yeah ive read it a few times but i just dont find anything about it rasing boost.

ahhh ok yes my spedo is off as well.  So the top gun 160 increases boost as well?
thanks again for the help haha

sweet so what would cause my tach to read like 7k at wot before it shifts.  I wasnt aware that the topgun chip made your boost increase...thats cool.

I also think my gauges may be off a tad bit, my tach shows that my car is shifting at 7k at wot. :icon_eek:

So what kind of difference will i see with 12psi as opposed to the stock boost?
