Is this boost creep?
hey guys, i was driving a friend home and i opened it up in 2nd and 2nd only. it was accellerating strong at 8psi until about 5k when it started lagging and my boost rose to close to 12psi. Is this the so called boost creep? thanks -alex im still learning!

Boost creep = boost keeps increasing unless you let off the gas, and is caused by too small of a wastegate or a wastgate that is not fully opening for some reason.
Boost spike = boost increases initially, but then goes back down on its own, and is caused by a slow-actuating wastegate that takes too long to open up.

ok, now i noticed when i floor it, the car will boost but... the car will bog for about 500rpm and then accellerate normally for about 1000-2000rpm then bog again for another 500-1000 rpm. It does this in the upper revs. whats going on? -alex
