driving turbo is a big headache. Here's my problem. When ever I hit full boost and the wastegate is open, I notice major major loss of power. But if I step on the gas lightly to keep the boost steady at 4psi and not open the gate, the car is running fast, but once I floor it and the gate is fully open, my car just die off. I have the dump tube open to atmosphere, all I heard is loud noise and No power. I have my car boosting at 7psi right now with FMU and walbro fuel pump. I'm pretty sure this has something to do with the wastegate, either I put it in wrong or vaccum is not right. I have the vaccum line hook up to the turbo compressor and I mount the wastegate on the manifold. My next decision is to move the wastegate to the turbo exhaust flange. Tell me what should I do to get this baby running good 7psi. Also, I've try to set my boost at 4psi and it still do the same. No power on when wastegate open.
