Default Help No Boost!

HI my car has no boost at all and seems to chug low down in the revs? Car ticks over fine, oil water fine recent plugs and filters done.

Its a standard 2002 wrx with ppp.

Can someone recommend a garage in the Teeside area?

any ideas????

Have you got a VTA dump valve? if so it might be stuck open. Baily ones are quite bad for it

It should still be making some boost regardless of o2 sensor readings

You got a boost gauge fitted?
