| Sounds to me like the remap is a bit off, the guage is just plug n play so should give you a true reading of whats happening. Either that or the rest of your engine is struggling to keep up. What turbo you running? Have you got a dump valve? Is the actuator jammed? | |

| Could be an air leak, make sure the actuator is not stuck and check all vaccum pipes if not take it back to the bloke that remapped it | |
