Boost leaks...

[rb25det250sx]

checked leaks with a tester, held 15 psi after i fixed the leaks. . . but im still peaking in boost and it gradually works its way down to 9lbs the higher my rpm gets. is this normal or do i have to get a diff wastegate or whats going on thanks!

stock turbo elbow and wg = terrible.

boost leaks suck,

stock elbow blows also!!

yeah i believe carl h is right. mine does pretty much the same thing. it spikes at whatever i set the boost at and then settles back down at like 8 or 9 psi. i pressure checked it and it held just fine. so i'm with carl in saying the stock turbo and wastegate are just terrible.

yeah, i noticed that it leaked BAAD so i put some copper spray on it, and torqued the bolts and it dont leak... i noticed my boost controller leaks is that normal?
