Default problems with one of my installs today

Either the Forge DV or the Modshack SII has caused me to lose some boost. My car won't go above 15, and when its at 15 its like real shaky and struggling. I have the green spring with two shims in the DV. Any suggestions? It's a 180 quattro. TIA.

Default Check for leaks, then remove one at a time

Sounds like a boost leak caused by an aging hose that was stressed or a loose fitting, possibly untightened hose clamp enduced.

Default Get it Vagged, mine would have full boost until 3k then throttle would go to 50%...

boost would drop to 15lbs then.
