Default Boost

Ok guys the car has been AWESOME and running insane...There was only one problem yesterday...I have not driven my car for about six days...I know a lot of days hahah at least for fellow S2K owners...Anyway the car intially I heard a pop of some sort nothing loud but a pop nonetheless coming from the front as my car was priming...Then I turned the key to off and tried again and it primed perfect...Soo I thought actually maybe sitting in the cold for not being started for six days the car was just REACTING...But turns out as I warmed up the car for about 10 mins by driving very safe under 4K RPM...I decided to boost because I forgot what it felt like, I was waiting for myself to be thrown back, but then NO BOOST or basically 1-2 psi of it and that was not fun at all...Anyone got any ideas maybe looks IC pipes or anything else HELP!!!

If you are running an AEM EMS is it quite possible you got the infamous ignition on "POP". Just check all your inlet piping for a pipe that may have just slipped (they may all look okay, but you need to "physicaly" check them).

Are you running boost control ?

Check the usual, IC piping for leaks, Vacuum lines from turbo to wastegate, BOV vacuum line, and boost controler if running one.

check the IC piping or the tubo shaft for any play or damaged blades.

Just curious what you guys mean by pop?

Intake backfire?
