Sorry if you said you did, but have you pressure tested the plenum in the car?
I recently moved my P3 to a tap on the back of the plenum. Still testing but it is hard where I live as long, straight roads with no traffic are very rare.
When I boost tested my plenum to 10PSI I found every velocity stack coupler leaked a little.
Boost seems to read ok. I no longer see vacuum but I know I do not have leaks now after fixing everything. I still feel that sometimes it wants to make boost then it doesn't. Very odd. A new shop is supposed to be opening up locally with a dyno, so I will wait to test there some more.
Superchargers should be simple. Only other thing I can think of is a bad BV seat from time to time or belt slip. I have ordered new tensionsers as they are cheap-ish and easy to change. This will rule out belt slip for sure.
It is frustrating but stay with it. When you sort it out, you will be so happy!!  |
I did do a pressure test but wasn't able to locate any leaks.
I've changed out the BPV to a BOV, and my boost is tapped via EAS velocity stack for my AWRON. I had a P3 and my boost readings were similar between both gauges.
Hopefully I sort it out soon, I still have yet to enjoy full boost.
Leaning towards a blower rebuild for now and see if maybe that has been my issue.
