That's a bummer to hear Javier, probably better to move this thread to the FI sub-forum.

But anyhow, wonder if the wastegate springs are bad? From what I recall before your setup was holding boost just fine on the GT28's right with the same wastegate springs?

Sounds like a coupler with a defect. These can be very hard to identify as they only split open under high pressure. You may need to do a pressure / smoke test.

I have a GTM turbo kit on my Z, 500 RWHP on and HR. I had a bunch of problems and then I installed the HKS EVO boost control and now ZERO boost issue.
