Then on my way to work at least 3x a week around the same turn I get a 30ff. Last weekend I deleted my vacuum canister and got 3mm silicone vacuum lines straight from the right of the engine cover to the left to the boost solenoids. Went around the turn yesterday and it went away! Or so I thought until today when low and behold right around that haunted turn I get 30ff. I do hear a loud "whooshing" sound when I'm building boost but I still hit 9.1 pounds according to my carly scanner at 5350 RPM. I am all stock besides m sport muffler and a triple core CSF aluminum radiator and vacuum canister delete. Are my wastegates bad even though I hit the right boost? Do I have a leak somewhere else? One thing I can say is the turn is right after a big uphill to a higher elevation (+900 feet from my house). Any help would be greatly appreciated.
