If your boost went "striaght down" at 5600, not just tailed off, then yes there is something wrong very clearly IMHO

Graph would help though, picture is worth a thousand words after all.
Which means that 5 are worth one of ginges posts.

no, not at all, it just means you turbo has made its maximum power earlier, so there is little point reving her much higher as you wont make any more power,
you can see the graph is on the down before he backed off

is it on a t3? or a t34?

a t34, you need to find out what exhaust housing its got now

.48, or .63 are the common ones

as jay said looks like a .63 graph making power quite late on

you should find the number stamped on the exhaust housing of your turbo (the heat wrapped part)

the compressors are the same between variants,

yes it will be less at the wheels, quite a bit less..

you need to find a good tuner, and get them to find your missing horses.

i recommend MSD!

If that's a .63 housing start saving!!

Mine made only 336 bhp on .63 last penultimate time it was out, and failed last wknd.

Know how you're feeling dude, its gutting to know a bill is round the corner, and your pride nad joy is poorly.

Take it as an opportunity to get a st escos or spaced 4x4 inlet and internally gated GT30 - that's what I'm doing and will see you well past 360 bhp!

everything is fixable, there is no point us guessing whats up with it, we know nothing about the engines spec or history

with a good set up, i reckon you will make more than 360....

the MSD 55lb set up is awesome!

I'm no expert at all, I'm a happy cheque book mechanic.

However the graph isn't smooth and 313 bhp at the fly is poor for a t34.63. You need to find a tuner you like and trust and ask them to have a look. If you're lucky it may be poor set up/boost leak/weak actuator or something and be relatively cheap to fix.

Or you could be unlucky like me, as my turbo shat its guts on Sat so the car's now off the road for most of the summer.

Hope its cheap for you mate.
