So i had the intercooler pipe off with the car idling and my AEM truboost gauge was reading -15 witch is normal. Once i put the intercooler pipe back on my gauge went to -9. So i was like
WTF
and took it back off and the gauge went back to -15. So i had a friend come over who knows about the microtech standalone i have and rotary's. He said the timing is spot on and my ecu looks like everything is right. Its funny when the car is idling you can hear the turbo and it sounds like it is trying to boost lol. The turbo that was on the car before was smaller and journal bearing but had the same size A/R housing i am running with the new HTA3582r turbo. So i guess this show how much better ball bearing turbos are vs journal bearing turbos.

Falcon we did a comp test cam back 90psi and 87psi. The only thing we where able to come up with is the .63AR 5 bolt back housing is too small. when the pipe is off its normal once i put it on back to -9. It drives fine and has lots of power boost comes on crazy fast.
YES I SAID 90PSI, is normal for rotary's.
