Eboost2 Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ok I had someone else install my eboost2 and set it up.
I have my car limited to 5600rpm to get use to the car but the car makes boost well before that.
1st gear it will make 2-4lbs of boost
2nd 5-8lbs
3rd all the way to 15lbs
4th all the way to 15lbs.
Any reason why its not making boost at the lower gears?
Ran at the track and highest mph I could get was 103 in the 1/4 my car is a built motor with a T76 with 15lbs of boost and it should be in low 11s high 10s
Ideas???????

IAT's under boost middle to low 80 (meth)
A/F under boost 10:1 a little on the rich side
Seems to be dumping boost in 1st and 2nd. Dont know if its even something with the eboost2.
I have some codes I will get pulled tommrow and start tracking them down tommrow.

rear mount? manual trans?
i dont think reading the instructions and learning how to use the eboost 2 will be avoidable so i reccomend going ahead and and doing that.
could be hooked up wrong, or set up specifically to do what it is doing, or it could be unrelated and a result of the turbo set up.
is it set up to switch automatically?
what is the wastegate spring?

Nope, leaks on the downpipe would only help you 
103 in the 1/4 eh? Wanna race a big fat turd of a Dodge for slips Timmy? 
Seriously though, you don't have nearly as much load on the motor in 1st and 2nd, and shifting that early might not be allowing enough time for the boost to rise. You'll first have to verify you're opening the gate at all, because it in all likelihood may not be related to the eBoost at all. I'd check the tune as well, because your timing curve says a lot about how things will look/run, especially down low.

Hey InsaneGTO, please don't get upset, I'm trying to help.... you should think about taking that thing to get it tuned by a pro. I've seen your posts here and on the HPT forum and you may want to either back up and do a lot of catch-up reading or go the route I just mentioned. I just don't want to see that engine get hurt and you not be able to really enjoy the potential of your setup.
FWIW if you stuck a PCM limiter at 5600 you may want to reconsider. I set mine over 7500. It is a fuel-cutting limiter, not spark, afterall, and you don't really want to cut fuel at peak boost.

Yeah I have a exp hptuner guy going to do it now. I should have it tuned this weekend and see what the heck is wrong with everything. I guess I should know there is going to be bugs when you do a swap like I did.
If we can get these issues done this weekend I am swapping to a Built TH400
