no boost?

Hey guys, I'm having an issue that i can't figure out. Obviously by the title I'm getting no boost. It will go to about 1-2psi, then drop down as im still accelerating. By the time I get to 5k rpms, its reading vacuum. I've logged my car and looked at the tune, and nothing. I disconnected my boost controller and ran straight wg spring pressure (20lbs), and still nothing. I don't have any boost leaks or anything like that. Any ideas? Also, im running the 3076r, with an external wg, if that helps.

Ok, I'm throwing 2 codes, p0130, and p0420. It starts getting boost after the p0420 comes on.. any ideas?

Those are 02 sensor & cat codes. Maybe you fried the 02 sensor? Log the fuel trims if you can, they may be so far outta whack if the 02 is fried that the ECU gave up trying to correct & went into limp mode.

Thanks for the reply. Hmm, the fuel trim didn't seem to be that far off, but ill see if replacing my 02 sensor does the trick. I don't know why I'm throwing a cat code, I don't have cats. I disabled all that stuff awhile ago. Hmm, any idea why it throws the cat one and as soon as it does I'm able to boost?
