Ok, I built this 91 Supra.... It has the 7mgte motor. I have a nitritie hardened racing crank, eagle rods and CP ceramic coated pistons,npr racing rings.
Stage 2 port polished head with stage 2 BC cams and obx cam gears. FMIC with the stock CT26 Turbo.Cometic gaskets.
Got the car running. Dont get me wrong, it runs good but I am not noticing boost! I have hooked everything up. When I stomp on it, it should boost and I should feel the turbo spooling up, but i dont.
Anyone have a clue what I should do to remedy this?

boost leak. Welcome. pics!

do you know where the boost controller solenoid box is located on a 91 supra?
what is happening is... I take off and the car accelerates, I dont hear the turbo or the bov go off. As a matter of fact, the boost gage is not regestering at all.
I have no shaft play.

no factory boost controller. all controlled by the internal wastegate. I'm not sure what your problem is; even with a boost leak, you should be able to hear the turbo. possibly the wastegate is somehow stuck open?
