Ok Heres the deal. I have an 85 Hotair GN. The only thing done to it is an ATR pitbull chip, no cat or muffler, and a k&n air filter. Other than that it is a stock car with about 100k miles on it. Anyways the speedometer has been bouncing so I decided to take it out and grease it up, after I put it back togther I went to drive it to see if the speedometer bounced. It was fine at low speeds, but I decided to get on it and see if it bounced going to a higher speed, and thats when my problem occured. It down shifted and took off and all of a sudden I noticed that my boost gauge went over 15lbs. It will normally only go to about 12lbs cause it has a cracked passenger side manifold. I thought it was just a fluke so I tried it a few more times and each time it would go right past 15lbs, and I would let off cause I was affraid that it was to high. I checked all my boost line to the wastegate and dont see any problems with it. What could be causing this to happen? Thanks for your help. Dusty
