Default running out of fuel?

i have a wh1c .. no plate, afc ff, starwheel cranked, and wg blocked and at wot with the tc locked i only see 20psi.. i checked for leaks and cant find any. when i am lock the tc and stomp it it rolls coal but as soon as the boost starts climbing the exhaust goes invisible... a buddy of mine just took out his plate and blocked the wg and he also has a wh1c and he sees 40 psi at wot? whats up with that?

---AutoMerged DoublePost---

well i think i answered my own question... forgot that tc starts slipping when i get to 20psi.... that would prob cause my issue huh?
