I am having problems getting more than 13psi boost using a dual stage boost controller, It is not hitting fuel cut, it just wont boost past this point using the controller. However if I use a manual bleed valve it works fine. I have tried 2 different types of dual stage controllers (Turbosmart & ebay special) and have the same problem with both. Could this be a problem with power getting to the controllers or should I be looking at something else.

what brand of Dual stage is it? because you might have the t-piece that goes from the wastegate actuator round the wrong way. mine is a turbo smart, and it is a little t piece which goes in the waste gate line for the bleedoff to the boost controller

It is a Turbosmart, I forgot to mention it is partially working, it will go from 11psi to 13psi but thats about it, I have checked to make sure it is not blocked and that the solenoid is working. It is currently setup as directed on the Turbosmart website.

does yours have the 2 adjustments, or just the single adjustment? you might have a faulty switch, or not a good earth. my friend had a skyline with the same thing, worked on and off, but then stopped working, just check wiring, failing that check the switch. you can test to see if you have a goodd earth. where you have the switch, just bridge the 2 terminals together, and that will close the circuit, allowing it to run high boost.

It is the dual stage, it turns out it was the power wire, bad connection all is working fine now. Thanks
