Is it a boost leak?

That's a good unit, IATs shouldn't be an issue this time of year it's freezing already.



Yes.

Depending on how APR has designed their tune, one of the issues could be the difference in load between the dyno and the street. Boost control in our ECU's is load-based, with a calculated torque output and a torque target. I haven't really seen issues on this platform, but on other platforms you will get significantly lower boost on a dyno than the street.

Yea I’m not sure though. I ordered a spullen catch can that comes with billet aluminum pcv... bout to find out to see

I had APRIS38 For almost 8 months.

I have never seen a number over 28 with that tune. So that is quite strange.
Are you using the analog P3 with the actual boost tap or the OBD2 port one?

It also wasn't even close to 23psi at 6k, more like 14-16 lol

And that is even with no air filter or exhaust so idk
