What did you find out? Still having the problem?

The only way to properly test for boost leaks is by removing the intake system and pressurizing the system using an air compressor and one of these connected to the compressor inlet:



Might save you the trouble next time by having a professional do the install. If you don't already know how to properly troubleshoot potential problems resulting from an installation you probably shouldn't be attempting them yourself.

There were no boost leaks. When the intake was installed it allowed more airflow through. The stock parameters were not able to compensate for that added airflow. I will be having the vehicle tuned as soon as the exhaust and down pipe get here. Thanks for all the help

Well installed the ETS FMIC, AMS DP and Test Pipe, ETS cat-back. Got a basic tune and everything runs really smooth now.

Woke her up a bit, didn't it?

So the tune ended up fixing the issue. I just installed a ETS intake and now i am not hitting near the same boost i was before. (26psi down to 20-21 psi)?

This doesn't sound right at all. I ran the ETS intake/UICP/3.5" FMIC/TP/Catback for a few months before getting tuned and never had any problems. You sure it's not just the warmer outside temperatures?

Rat Fink

It may have been, but I research that the evo does tend to lean out cause of more air circulating through. Whatever it was it is fixed now.

This could be the reason why ETS and AMS installed a manual boost controller set to 21/22psi after installing the intake...

Not really sure, i know a couple buddies here are still hitting the same boost, and i was running 26psi until the install.
