Hey guys hope I posted in the right place, car is a 93 jdm gc8 I'm really wondering what's going on with it. I put a boost gauge in yesterday and was only hitting 6psi.. vacuum is around 15 at idle. it never builds boost in lower Rpms, I can step on it and will only get 1-2psi till I'm up higher in rpm. I re did all my vacuum lines, I do have a crappy stock bpv that the nipple broke off of so I epoxied the hose to it to run to the intake manifold... could that be my issue?
I have two codes. Code 24 and 44.
I made sure my waste gate was opening and closing but maybe its opening to soon? I don't know a lot about these cars yet but I did install the motor my self.
I also tried bypassing my bcs, I just tied them all together and that got my boost up to 7psi or so. But then I'd get a fuel cut or something right at 5000rpm WOT. So I Put my bcs back on and that fuel cut went away.
What's going on here, I don't have any leaks as far as I can tell, but maybe my bpv is garbage? Is there anything else I can check or some ways to diagnose? I've been reading for hours trying to figure it out. Could I zip tie my waste gate shut to confirm it's not opening early?
Also can I try and ej20k solenoid? The two port?
