How did your car even make above 29PSI? Even with my PTE 5862 and no signal to the waste gate the max I could hit was 29PSI based on the stock MAP sensors limitations.
I was thinking the same, how do you hit 30psi with a boost leak?
Not a boost leak, it was overboost. The car computer freaked out about the parameter change with the increased volume on the cold side/3.5" charge pipe while still retaining the stock 2" hot side pipe, this is what the mechanic at the dealership described it as. I'm sure there was some over compensation by the computer but by the time I rolled it into the dealer it had reset and I could never replicate the condition.
I can kind of see where he is going with this, but I am not buying it, the only component that I can think of in this sense that is not physical i.e. blowing your WG line, is the EBC controlling the wastegate and saying to stay closed to reach a specific WGDC or something. I am not sure however how the 2" hotside and 3"+ cold side affect this since these cars are not MAF based, but speed density.
