yeah it goes back to zero and i feel just the motor which is quite sluggish. Where is the n75 valve? cause i didnt instal anything to do with the turbo, i had a local shop do it.
you just had your turbo replaced? how long ago? why wouldn't this be the first thing you would mention? have you done anything besides come on here and say "I have no boost" ? did you check all the vacuum lines? like the one your boost gauge is spliced into? what kind of DV do you have?

well for one i just got my license back and my car has been sittin in my garage for about 4 months,,
The turbo has about 6000 miles on it now, which got replaced last june. i tried checkin all the lines i could with the hood popped and i plan on gettin underneath the car when my schedule allows. I have a Baileys Motorsport DV.

do one of those diy boost leak test things. it will let you know i you have a leak and exactly where it is


Do you have or know someone that has a compressor? All you need is to get a tennis ball punch a hole threw both sides, stuff the air line into the ball and stuff the ball into the turbo hose. Turn on the compressor and put 10psi ONLY into the system and listen for a leak.
