For Gas, I usually mix my gas 87 with 93, especially during the winter. In anticipation of fixing the turbo issue, I topped off with 93. Right now I am probably somewhere around 91.5 +/- a tenth or so.
For the Waste Gate, it will move, and if I clamp off the tube from the BPC to the Waste Gate, I can get full boost, so the problem is not mechanically, but in the control. Either the BPC is not working (so I have gotten a couple of bad new to me used ones) or for some reason the BPC is not getting the right signals.
Unfortunately, I don't have any friends with a T-5 that I could swap BPCs with to see if that is the issue.
I have spent a lot of time on this & getting very frustrated.
