Default Possible limp mode?...

I have the APR Stage 1+ and the Stratmosphere DV, but have not been able to drive the car in "chip mode" for several months due to the fact that the turbo just screams out of control and it does nothing for my performance. As for stock mode, now it spools up initially like it used to do in chip mode, but if I reve it to 4500 for more than a second or so, the turbo shuts down until I shut off and restart the car. I suppose I could have some loose hoses, or bad DV. Also, I blew out the catalytic converters, which tells me there may be something wrong with the boost levels Right?

Any input would be appreciated.

Default Either a boost leak or a bad DV is my guess

I've had the same problem.
