So I took the tmap off and removed the nub. No help. I hooked up a vacuum/pressure gauge and I had 16 psi boost. Tune must be good on 3 bar sensors, reads the same as the rpd. Got a code for bypass valve stuck open. Huh? Replaced the 2 solenoids I had replaced for the original problem before I found the Crack in the charge pipe cooler, took it out and slammed it 2nd and 3rd gear, hit 25 pounds of boost in both gears. Now where the other 2psi came from I don't know, originally had 23psi, but I will take it. Hey you guys are great, it's nice knowing there are people out there that are so helpful. I would have been lost. Now after having this car for 7 years I finally understand how everything works. Have a great Labor day weekend. Mine just got fabulous. Thank you.

 

I can almost see that ear-to-ear smile!

You don't have to wait until it's gone to come back!

Glad we could help.

 

Glad you got it fixed! Now enjoy the ride and keep an eye out for that Kodiac with a Kodak !

 

I had the misfortune to blow the factory plastic clamp on the lower charge tube, took forever to locate, but finding it suuuuure sloved alot of the issues I had.

 

Glad you got it running fine again!

 

The clamps are metal. What exactly happened?
