I'll start by saying what I have done to my car. 08 135i
JB4, cpe catless dps, berk resinated mids with street axelback, cpe charge pipe with tial bov, DCI, and ETS 5" FMIC.
Im currenty switching to cobb for a protune by jake, but before doing so I have been noticing wastegate issues. Im hoping you guys have some input.
Most of the time i'm crusing on the highway (partial throttle) when the exhaust note of my car dramatically changes and my boost (fuel gauge highjack) drops from about 4psi to 0 and if I give it a little gas it usually comes right back. Several occasions last 20-30 seconds. Usually happens if the car is going up a slight hill. Do you think my wastegates are taking a crap? Half or full throttle have no issues at all. The problem has become more present the past 2 months after my intercooler install. I have noticed it before that, but not as much.
I hope someone has some input!
Thank you.
