4# @ idle

[8AV8]

I just upgraded turbo and injectors. after a couple of runs i got a code 45 and my stock boost gauge is reading 4#s at idle.Whats the cause?

I wouldn't pay attention to the stock gauge. Do you have a mechanical one installed? Hook up a vaccum gauge while it's at idle and that will tell you for sure what it's doing...

Also, I heard once that if one of the two holes for the vaccum lines on the stock boost sensor is not open then it won't work correctly. Mine has the vaccum line on one and a cap on the other so I don't know how true that is...

stock boost gauge is useless...get a pillar pod and a mechanical boost gauge, its the only to go..and dumbass me has not gone that way yet lol :tongue: *soon though..soon*
