Default How do you eliminate boost drop ?

Or can't it be done ? My saph peaks at 26 psi and drops to 23 can it be held at 26 all the way to the limiter ?

Depending how its set up,... any or all of the following could apply...

Turbo is running out of boost (consumed flow)

Actuator is weak.

AMAL valve is reducing boost (as would be reuired for stage 3)

AMAL valve is jetted to cause boost spike.

No problem.

When I was "learning" about cossies,

I melted a stage 3 by turning the boost up a few PSI by removing
the AMAL valve and using a boost controller.

Just a little bit more....Just a little bit more....Just a little bit more....
