1jz...won't boost over 5 psi!
Stutters at 4-5 psi....something like hitting fuel cut or somthing the needle just flutters as it hits over 5psi.
Please help me on what is going on..before i could boost to stock 10 psi with no problems.
could this be the outside hot temperature? bov too close to hot turbo side? cheap ebay boost controller? vacuum leak? even worst one of the turbos died? spark plugs are not gapped. i dont remember ever gapping them...
its shows 12 psi on the vaccuum pressure gauge.
even worst one of the turbos died?
let me know how to fix this..thanks!

well start with the basics, bypass the cheap boost controller and see what happends, run the car and check for vac leaks, if it was turbo's it will still rev but not boost,
