Default For those that looked at my dyno run thread.

I uploaded the video (no sound) so you can see what I saw. It's difficult to make out but the small dark line the needle crosses before max boost is 10psi.

Can you determine anything by watching this?

Video Yeah I know it's crappy......

Dash gauge seems to read high. I say the wastegate's going south....

After adjusting the LBE up a thread, I seemed to hit 13 maybee 14psi (it was a quick peak) before bleeding off in 3rd gear. I was on a long on ramp and am not willing to run up 4th on the road.

I'll have see if that helps the AFR any.

I'll be replacing the hoses anyway.

Danno, I thought that 12psi, the dash gauge would be pegged..... So the dash gauge is reading a little higher than the Autometer?

Well, 2-bar absolute on the dash-gauge is actually 1-bar above atmospheric, or 14.5psi of boost. I've heard that Autometer gauges can be off by a couple PSI though.
