Turbo Questions... (Please move to Technical)

[Y-TRY]

Thanks for all the help and info, guys. There are certainly a few options and possible problems.

I have a good grasp on what/how the wastegates and BOV work, and what their function is. My prior knowledge is only affirmed by your responses. I think the problem may remain to be what BigAl stated: the BOV still isn't letting off enough pressure, like it's staying open for too short a time. It's as loose as it goes right now, though.

I have the car apart right now to get all the tubing and whatnot coated, so I haven't been able to address this problem since. I did get a good tune on it right before pulling it down and the problem is pretty much gone, but it still dies maybe 1 of 10 times if I don't blip the throttle as I'm hitting the brakes. My feet get to moving like I'm Lars Ulrich.

I'll let ya'll know what I come up with when it's back together. Right now I'm also trying to fix a mean oil leak at the rear pan seal and come up with the best way to fix a problem with the headers....
