Wow, seems I'm running higher then stock boost right now, I'm putting out at least 90 KPA, I can't look at the boost gauge when I'm going over that amount cause obviously I'm friggen rocketing. But anyway, when I start my car the gauge is not 0'd out, it sits at 3 KPA, and I know I'm getting up to at least 93 KPA meaning my car is running over 13 PSI stock. I'm pretty happy about this, I have one of the last '06's built, perhaps I got a monster.

No you have something wrong with your car

1. The cat is clogged causing backup which will make you boost higher
2. Your mani is clogged , same deal
3. Your guage is wrong


I wold take it to the dealer a.s.a.p or you are going to notice a cherry red manifold and cat really soon.

 

sounds like a clogged cat...

 

I dont think thats a good sign. I was hitting 85kpa maxed out and idleling -40 -70

 

I hit 91 KPA stock, even thats a lil high but cat is most likely the problem.

 

How the hell can it be a clogged cat with only 2900 km on it? What are the signs of a clogged cat? I dont think I have any problems with the exhaust, no smells, nothing...

signs of the clogged cat are abnormal boost lvls.... and it happens to alot of the cars with low mileage...

 

mine did the same thing with only 3500 on it. i was boostin high and bout a week later my cel light came on. took it in and had a clogged cat. the replaced it under warrenty

 

Im going to run it until a CEL is thrown, cause right now nothing appears to be wrong... Will a clogged cat definately cause a CEL? I am going to get under the car next time I run it hard and look for a red cherry.

93 KPA ~ 13.48 PSI as an FYI

 

mine runs around 89kpa above 5500rpm or so (seems to be about 12.9psi). I'll check it again today.

KPA TO PSI CONVERSION

 

when the air is good mine WILL hit around 90KPA as well my cat has been checked its fine so who knows...!
