Your map sensor isn't making boost rise at the top end...I thought at one point you could buy wastegate actuators aftermarket and they claimed to make power....they didn't really make power though they just added boost because wastegate duty cycles would need major tuning after that type of hardware change

I think your diaphragms in your wastegate canisters are messed up honestly

If the canister is messed up it won't push the rod that opens the wastegate  which is how boost is lowered

Hey AJP! ... had a question .. what kind of  membrane?  call me crazy but a flexible part in a constant oven sounds silly ?  (educate me!)...

Does anyone know what size torx screwdriver is needed to swap map sensors?

I dont recall the exact size, but I do recall it is a security screw, meaning there is a peg in the middle. This requires a special torx bit, that has a hole in the center of the star. I bought the set they sell at autozone, and it had the proper size, plus allowed for it to be used at a 90 degree angle for better torque on the bolt, as the first time it is a pain to remove.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!
