    How to raise boost psi

    Hold on before you do anything....your boost only goes to 4psi??? Stock boost is 6.8 Something isnt right if you can only get it to 4psi.

    My pressure is pretty close to what it needs to be until I get to 2500rpms+ Then it levels out at 23-25 psi tops.

    The coolant "disappears" then magically reappears. My car doesnt overheat. Shoot it hardly gets to the half way point on the temp gauge. My oil looks fine, and there is no milky white stuff under my oil cap either. I checked that just incase for bhg. Codes are coming.

    It starts without a problem. I did just remember something, the other day I would start it, and it would turn right off. Did it 4 times, until I gave it a little gas, then never did it again.

    Ill check the codes tomorrow. Its raining. I replaced ALL the vaccum lines. And I havent checked the isc. Will do so tomorrow. The only other weird thing that occured in the past week, is my powersteering fluid kinda mists out of its res. I think its just to much fluid in there though.

    It was dirty, so I cleaned the overflow tank, took it out the car and everything. I added water before I took off for work, and it ran great the whole way there. I start my car up after work and the rad light came on. I checked and the damn overflow tank was bone dry. SOO, I had to get home so I...
