Hello all,

I had a dump pipe made today for my wastegate, as well as had my new exhaust put on. My car was running fine today (8psi, just on the spring). After I left the shop with the dump pipe, I'm getting boost spike up to 15 psi. I've talked to some people and they don't think the dump pipe is the issue.

Any thoughts? The dump pipe has a 90degree bend on it to clear the steering shaft and dump under the chassis.

Still having the problem. I'm controlling the throttle though, so I don't overboost. Has anyone had this problem?
