lmao.. nice description haha

are you auto or manual?

are you going off the stock boost guage?

if you're getting 8psi then the turbo is definitely working, if the turbo wasn't working you wouldn't be able to get that much volume of air

you need to check all your intercooler pipes for cracks, splits or hose clamps that may have popped

Haha, I think mine has a boost leak. Mine would idle at 1500 sometimes and the vaccum would be all the way down. Luckily im replacing it with hardpipes anywyas.

You might want to try taking off the bellows that feeds the turbo from the afm and try spinning the impellers. It could be locked up. There could be other problems, but you might want to see if the turbo itself is working first.

Let us know.

Are you in new brunskwick NJ? I could come by and look at it, thats like 30 mins from me. And you cant get a factory turbo 240sx, they never sold them to america. Youd have to buy an sr20det and stick it in there. The KA motors suck anyways lol. Those cars have no power.

Im standard and i think i figured it out. Huge whole in one of the vaccum lines.
Im not in Nj Im up in NB canada thanks neways tho.
