    how does the isc work?

    how does the isc work?

    how does the isc work?

    stock wastegate not holding over 7psi?

    ^LOL i dont think its a vacuum or boost leak in the pipes, i would need to do a pressure test to be sure i guess but i think the problem is in the wastegate actuator, and now i see its not adjustable, ill replace it with my old one and try it out, btw how much pressure can the stock...
