boost issue?
Hey guys
So i have 1991 Soarer with the 1JZ-GTE twin turbo and im noticing something that seems a bit off.
I am not sure if this is an issue with the motor or my boost gauge but the car stock was usually hitting around 9-10lbs when boosting but now throughout the gears id be lucky to hit that. But my first gear when hitting boost doesnt even move the needle on the gauge, 2nd gear it maybe hits 4lbs, 3rd gear about 5-6lbs and 4th and 5th seems to get up to 9lbs.
so, i am not sure. Maybe a loose connection with my intercooler piping, vacuum lines, crappy boost gauge?
The car still seems to be pulling hard and i hear the turbos going.
Any help or input would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Zack
