So I put a sweet GTI-R turbo and Isis V.2 Exhaust manifold on my stock s13 SR Redtop. Had a few issues with an exhaust leak but got that taken care off. Running 12lbs I was hitting full boost around 3800-4000 RPM which seems about right. Then I crashed into a wall. Pulled the engine dropped it into another shell and got the car running. Now the car feels like its NA up till about 4200 RPM when the turbo is at about 7lbs. Then around 5500 RPM it gets up to 12ish and starts to pull. Haven't checked the timing but it should still be around 15-18º as I had it set before. I still hear a bit of an exhaust leak as I decelerate but I think its the downpipe as the crappy aluminum foil gaskets seem to last all of a week. I don't think that would affect boost that way. Anyone have any ideas on what to check? Is it normal for the CAS to sit almost all the way clockwise for it to be at 15º? Oh and my interior lights and cluster lights don't work! I have no clue why... http://beta.floridadrift.com/Smileys/default/cry.gif
