The owners manual clearly says do not race until the engine is warmed up. That was said for a reason.............although some cars are suppose to be driven right away after start up.......not the ss

Just replace it and see. The only two times I've seen issues with boost in neutral were a loose wastegate actuator rod and a bad IAT2 sensor. The sensor is pretty cheap, I think.

Ah, IDK, I always let my car warm up to 180* Oil Temp and Coolant Temp before I drive it. Never had a problem. Car actually runs 1000x better in the cold.

Plugs could have alot to do with it. No spark would mean no power. Mine does that sometimes on a NLS, if its not quite warm enough for that yet. It'll just misfire and the RPM's will stick. I changed my plugs, works fine now.

just for the people that keep telling me not to beat on it when its cold...i stated that in the original post. i will not argue that i don't let the car warm up before driving it...but unless this issue is happening, it doesn't even go into positive boost while its cold. the only time it seems positive boost pressure when its cold is when this issue is happening.
