I have alot of turbo lag and alot less power than I used to. I used to be running around 17 psi and now it hits 11 max. I thought I had a really bad exhaust leak. But I brought it to an exhaust shop and they couldnt find one. It also blows alot of blue smoke at high rpm's. My engine mods include all forged internals, cam, ported and polished heads, ported intake manifold, borla exhaust, full intake, Thrasher 92 octane chip for stock injectors, and I barely pulled away from my friends jetta (vr6 swap) that pulls mid 14's. Since TTA's run low 14's stock, something is obviously very wrong. Maybe if someone could direct to a perfoemance shop in Phoenix, AZ, that would help me out alot more.
Could it be a bad turbo? What should I look for on or in my turbo to tell if it is bad?
Thanks in advance, Bobby.
