Well i finally got my cambelt kit done on my legnum, well cambelt oil seals new water pump new engine mounts new gearbox oil transfer case oil engine oil got my boost problems looked at saying thats fine also looked over the whole car and said its all fine. so apparently now i have a trouble free legnum. not happy about paying $1800 extra on a car that was already overpriced but i hate life in general so idc ill just have a smoke and ill forget it all happened.


They did say it running just over 7psi which is standard. Well from you guys on here 9psi is standard for a manual one so i'll have a look into that and check for minor boost leaks and ill put my expensive boost gauge out of my 300 into the legnum to see what it reads. at least now i have a boost leak tester and all that stuff as well to just double check there work.



Also i do like driving my legnum more than i do my 300, which is weird because the 300 is hell faster and way more power and handles better but who knows lol i like the legnum better

Glad you got it sorted. 7 psi is probably fine. Every car is different!

7psi is wastegate pressure. Ur boost solenoid is probably screwd or disconnected. 9 psi is computer controlled

i thought 5psi was wastegate pressure? either way at least now i know my boost gauge is stuffed so ill get another one then see what it is. cant wait to actually drive it and see what they go like and handle like, havent really got to drive it since i brought it, just been parked up till i got it all sorted.
