I found the same thing with mine playing on highway making it flutter. Up to 17PSI when viewed on the dyno before Simon backed it off again. Cheap gauge was reading 25 at that point (lol).Turbos love resistance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happens 60% of the time.......everytime. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
