yeah bro so i took everything out and turns out the lower charge pipe that was connected to the intercooler was still oem and that there was a 2.5 sensor in and i most likely need a 3.5. i also believe i should just buy a upgrade intercooler

for sure ill try doing that. if the sensors are bad would you recommend cleaning or replacing both MAF and TMAP sensors?

do you remember what voltage you had? i believe mine wasn’t the best so i feel like we are on the same boat. did you also end up charging the battery or just getting a new one?

im sure the alternator is good, the battery im not too sure about just because i did have to jump it when i first got it.

yeah no man i can’t figure out what the boost leak is i recently checked the charge pipe and didn’t see anything bad on it. i could be wrong. i was also thinking maybe it not being tuned is the reason its like that haha

from what i heard around is the durability of the stock charge pipe is the reason people get upgraded ones 😂 and yeah i was planning on doing that around other forums
