Re: a problem after another
ok so i did another pressure test, i left the tank running on 10 psi, i went into the car to see what psi it was on an it read 4-5 psi, while looking at the gauge i heard a air leak from my pedals. went under an found that the bushing for my clutch pedal was leaking pretty bad, i stepped on the house with the gauge in my hand an as i stepped on it the boost dropped to like 2-3 psi, im like oh shit thats where the leak was. i was wondering if theres a replacement for the bushing? i might just get a whole new pedal from ebay with bushings. hopefully my car will run better when the leak is fixed, i do have a leak with the pcv hose an the hose that connects to the plenum with the arrow pointing towards the engine.

Re: a problem after another
have you checked your timing belt to make sure it lines up on all 4 cams and the crank?
Slipped timing can be a cause for the car to not rev all the way to redline.
