im having a issue with my ps13, its a redtop sr20det with stock t25 turbo and stock actuator, i can seem t get my boost to 1 bar.

ive done all the supporting mods i.e 255lph pump, fmic, full 3" exhaust system, s/s manifold and elbow etc.

the boost controller im using is a hks evc 6 and has been plumbed right, i set it to 1bar but the boost pressure stay to stock 0.6 bar wont even go any higher.

is there something im missing like a chip in the ecu, an aftermarket actuator?

please help 'i wanna higher boostingzings' lol

I wouldn't go upping the boost too much without an ECU upgrade, be it a chip or a remap.
anyway, have you adjusted gain/duty on the boost controller ?

have you checked the boost hosing to make sure you have taken out the reducer in one of the lines going to the actuator

The boost controller is turn on? When it's turn off it runs standard boost pressure.
