Default only 5 psi boost

Hi

I am getting frustrated on this problem

starting to cost money

I have no boost showing on stock gauge


I am running the 58 swamp ficm
new garett power max turbo
banks 5 inch exhaust
sb air filter kit
air dog fuel pump at 45 psi
stock injectors
brand new aluminum air to air cooler

Took to diesel express in town and told me the cooler was gone
go paid 1300 bucks

did not fix
Took to local ford dealer and they told me that the injectors are gone 3500 bucks
and the wiring was bad to the turbo...so I said go ahead to fix wires


they changed the wires for 700 bucks


now the turbo shows 5 psi that's it
it will rev to 3500 rpm with no turbo


this is getting frustrating


Jim,

it is driving me crazy

I do not know what else to check

currently have stock 130 cc injectors

thinking going up to 160 cc ....will this increase the horsepower

Ford says the injectors are gone ......causing turbo not to boast


Jim
