    If you notice in the second image the detroit software treats them as the same. It could be stronger over 35 at times because you're pushing the turbo harder. Especially if there's still boost from acceleration. This is actually normal.

    That's a freaking shame. There are maybe 10-12 settings they would have to change but it would be nothing special. I think they screwed up.

    But that's not how the detroit software sees it. Maybe high grounds both wires. DDDL will show that.

    OK so we've at least eliminated one thing.

    ok, again another thing eliminated. Honestly it wouldn't be hard to tweak it. Actually it has me thinking, the ECM could be thinking medium is low and low is medium. Again points to programming error.

    This screams wastegate to me. Call Leon he can definitely help you. I haven't seen anything in the detroit software that links the jake to torque limiting. But that doesn't mean it isn't there.
