That makes alot more sense, if you ran 20 psi on a stock engine with a k03 your engine would probably not be running at the moment

yea i understand were you are coming from, but from what i know of the apr stg 1 tune is supposed to get you around 18psi spike with 16 psi normal. but im only getting like 3-6psi at any time. idk if im in limp mode or not. I have no codes at all.

*Update* Found out the problem, for one i had a small leak on the exhaust manifold, but ultimately the turbo is blown or the waste gate is messed up. So i ordered a new k03 turbo because with auto trans i don't really wanna push to much torque and end up messing it up. Found a brand new K03 Borg warner for 450 shipped and everything so i decided to do that instead of getting a used one. If its just the actuator messed up i might fix mine and keep it as a spare also.
