I get no positive intake pressure. How do I know if it;s the turbo bad or the waistgate control is bad? Send your answer anytime as I just found the car has a problem and it's not a dailey driver.

We only list 280z for turbo but pic has what the boost should be also if you have electric fuel pump it should be 43-64 psi. The waste gate should open at around 6 psi on intake. Also check the pressure valve on intake. If it's stuck open you won't get much boost at all.

The car accually is a 280Z but your question page didn't offer a 280Z as a choice.
