Ok ima check. I usually give it between 50-maybe 75% throttle not really WOT because I catch no traction between 80-100% throttle. Its happens sometimes not all the times. When you say spike, that means it doesn't go over 19psi correct? Thanks for all the help and support.

No, i wouldn't think it would be a problem as long as it was tuned that way.

How long have you been running on the stock clutch?



Spiking is a term that means somethign of the lines that....even though your boost is set at 7lbs....you have something that causes it to peg another higher psi level.

Umm since July 08'. Not too long but total of maybe 85% clutch left. I shift at like 3K 99% of the time. Only hit boost a total of 5-10 times.

Spiking meaning, going over the spring limit.

I.e: 7lb spring...but the car is spooling to 7+ lbs of boost, not just 7, because there is a problem somewhere in your setup.

I think you problems are in your injectors. stock injectors on 7 lbs. is not enough they are prob. at 100%... try running a higher set and retune, have a feeling that the next time or two when she runs in to fuel cut you'll have a cracked piston or two .

That's what I tried saying. Your turbo setup is spiking, for some reason..

What manifold do you have? What wastegate? and check your vacuum lines and routing.
