Anyone with related issue?

Hey guys so I took off my downpipes vrsf catless, and I put my stock ones on and I have zero boost, with jb4 on the car and off the car. Anyone have any ideas? Let me know, thank you!

You may have rotated the clamp on the downpipe so the wastegate is hitting it and cant close. That is the first thing I would check

+1 for the clamp.

It's boosting very little. 1-2 psi then doesn't boost anymore. You think that can be the problem? Hopefully I can get this resolved before tonight so I can head over to SoCal euro for this weekend !

Likely the clamp hitting the WG actuator arm.

Hey guys, thanks a lot for your help! The clamp was in deed blocking the waste gate! Fixed and is boosting great! Thanks!
