Ok I've searched but not really finding anything, I had a DNA MBC on but at about 4000 rpm with the Boost controller on the lowest setting it would creep from 7psi to 10psi then at 5000+ it would just climb. So I ran it directly from the hotpipe nipple to the wastegate and same thing. Any Ideas? Stock S14 Turbo, stock wastegate...

double check all your vac lines.especially the one on the wastegate.

Wastegate could be bad also. Since the wastegate is just a rubber diaphram.

Ok well I tried disconnecting the wastegate just to see how the car would act and it shoots straight to 10psi at like 2000rpm so the wastegate is doing something just not enough at 5000rpm. I swapped the hose and no change. I pumped air to the wastegate from my shop airline and it actuates thru the full sweep, but then again that is alot more then 7psi. I ordered the HKS wastegate actuator so I'll keep you guys posted.thanks for the help
