Boost?

[gtst_skyline]

Why cant i build boost in first gear? I have no problem in any other gear but im just wondering why when im in neutral or parked i cant build boost to show off my bov? Thx

Mine starts building around 3-3.5k rpm, normally rev it up to 6.5-7k and then release it, gives a nice woosh sound

You should normally only be able to build boost under load. If you're in neutral it's not going to happen unless you are running a rev limiter of some sort.

So you can't build boost while neutral, parked OR in first?

No i cant build boost in any of those. Its a 5 spd as well if that makes a difference.

Like DarkCaporal said, you should only be able to build boost under load. But no boost while driving in first is... odd... :S

No leak. I can build 10lbs every time and hold it there. The wastegate opens tho. I think i might be building boost but neither of my gauges show boost at all

When you punch it from a stand still, do you FEEL it boosting? It's a pretty unmistakeable feeling, boost gauge or not lol.

it is normal, your car has no load at a standstill :P
