Cobb Stage 2.5 VF34 Won't Hold Boost
So I was driving on the highway going to the track today and when I went to pass people and dropped it into 4th gear and gaver', my boost would go low, high, low, high, it just won't hold as it should. I think this may be related to the problem of why I can't get into the 12s as well. Any ideas?

How long have you had the reflash? My 2.5 took a few weeks to learn my mods. Also, the TMIC might be the cause. The reflash doesn't call for one and usually a TMIC isn't within the "learning" ability of any reflash. All TMICs are differant as well, so no map could be universal.

When I installed the Cobb VF34 setup I started hearing a hissing noise from the bpv area at full boost (hitting around 16.5-17psi). I tried replacing the bpv gasket but still heard the same noise. So I gave up and bought a forge bov, before the installation I went for a drive to see how much psi I was hitting that day (16.5psi). Then I installed the new bov and started hitting 18-18.5psi. So maybe you have the same problem.
