limited to 9 psi
well now my subie will only boost to 9 psi. had a boost leak test today and they found no leaks then they put it in drive and held the brakes to make a load and they said its hissing at the actuator. so if it's truely bad would this work.

Re: limited to 9 psi
Which turbo do you have installed on your car? What are you using to control boost?

Re: limited to 9 psi
How much boost were you making before your problems occur.

Re: limited to 9 psi
i was at 12 psi and i have a jdm tdo4. it still drives fine just cant get past 9lbs of boost. he said this morning to get a re enforced coupler between the in and throttle body
Re: limited to 9 psi
Do you have any codes stored in the ECU?
Are you using the stock boost control, manual boost controller, or aftermarket electronic boost controller?

Re: limited to 9 psi
no codes and a grimmspeed mbc. it just happened suddenly. the coupler thats there now balloons out under boost so they say
Re: limited to 9 psi
Which coupler?
If it's ballooning under boost, it may also be leaking under boost.

Re: limited to 9 psi
inbetween the tmic and the throttle body. i changed that to day and still only 9 psi and slowly drops the longer i hold the throttle. i'm also getting the wastegate fllutter noise when i power brake. going to try to adjust the actuator arm tomorrow. then going to replace the waste gate actuator its self if the adjustment doesnt help
Re: limited to 9 psi
i adjusted the actuator rod and the power came back. but should i get a new actuator just to be safe?
Re: limited to 9 psi
How much did you adjust it? Was it loose before?

Re: limited to 9 psi
i turned it like 7 turns. and it was fine when it was first installed
Re: limited to 9 psi
I'd probably wait and see if that fixes things or if you need to turn it again sometime in the future.
