theres no way theres no boost in 5th though youll hit more boost in higher gears... 5th gear is the closet to having a 1:1 ratio

idk, boost was most likely build at 3k....

Thats what im saying. Going into the 5th the needle starts at 3,500 RPM.

Couldnt look at the boost gauge and the tach at the same time...

Deff felt like no boost was there.

impossible to diagnose a car on the internet. sooo many reasons traps speeds and boost issues could be off....this is silly. just take the car somewhere to have it looked over by somone who knows whats goin on.

only had two passes, first one i didnt really pay attention.

The second pass i looked at the tach after going into 5th and it was pretty low. Deff under 4k? Shifted out of 4th around 6,800rpm.

Idk, not really a big deal!

shifting from 4th to 5th should only drop about 1k rpms. If you are shifting from 4th at 6800 rpm and in 5th the car falls under 4k rpm then you definitely have an issue, unless you waited 10 seconds before letting the clutch out in 5th

still wouldnt drop rpms like that... i think hes just assuming it went down that low and there was no boost because it didnt feel strong up top
