Just the other day i was driving car was working normal. I was getting on the on ramp to the highway and all of the sudden the car just got this extra boost going up to almost 18 (set at 14) and ended up almost spining out. Then step on the pedal on 3 pounds of boost, im like wdf. Ive looked for boost leaks and the only other thing i could figure is that the wastegate failed. anyone else had this problem with wastegate failure any answer is appreciated.
Thanks
Rico

unhook battery or pull ecm fuse for a few min to reset then hook back up and go for a drive. you may have a spit hose or interooler leak under high pressure check all of it again real close.
