[QUOTE="neverkickn, post: 342776, member: 718"] With the di uppies, the only way I can think of you having a drive pressure leak, short of a defect in the assembly is if you didn't properly allign the collector with the turbine housing of the charger. assuming of course that the manifolds aren't leaking and that the uppies are properly attached to the manifolds. Did you bolt the charger to the pedistal and then attach it to the collector? I have heard that those uppies can be tricky to mount. I would almost be tempted to detach them from the exhaust manifolds, bolt down the charger on the pedistal so your orings don't walk, fit the collector onto the charger properly, and then attach the uppies to the manifolds. But before you go to all that trouble you should attach a boost leak detector and pressurize the system. As far as the wastegate goes, it should already be pretty well adjusted from the factory, but if you determine that you dont have any leaks then you can tighten the rod on the actuator a little at a time to see if it helps. Out of curiosity, what where your boost numbers when you did your test drive? Was the truck more smokey than normal? [/QUOTE]
