Low Boost, Low Power

[DeanEP]

well lads i got a 96 glanza turbo with the following mods:

a/c removed

front mounted air filter

boost solenoid bypassed

s/s manifold

s/s downpipe

full exhaust system

problem im having is that my car is low on power and its not boostin right

max boost i can get is 8psi but usually its at 6psi, 2 of the 3 turbo boost lights on the dash only come on in 1st n 2nd

in 3rd, 4th, 5th the 3 lights come on at high revs but sometimes go back off

any idea what this could be?

also the vacuum pipe normally connected to the efi pipe isnt connected to anythin now as shown below...

Cheers

Dean

that pipe is the problem i would think block it at least with a screw or sumfin

Standard actuator?

If so thats your problem, junk it and upgrade.

Also iirc the pipe that isnt sonnected at one end looks connected to the second port of the standard actuator. If you block it you will be in low boost forever. So dont.
