i have a question, i know it might be stupid but here goes. when my car is at an idle, my boost gauge ready 15 in vaccume. i have a sr20det with a t3/t4e, my friend with an eclipse has a stock turbo and his sits at like 20. does the engine really matter or is it the size turbo. i cant remember what mine wsa at with my t25. it is just so low compared to all of my friends with turboed cars, im just wondering if i have a hidden boost leak somewhere
