30ff boost leak?

is there a way i code this out for the computer to ignore it. im running mhd stage 1+ if i go back to stock i push normal boost. running the tune tho mhd says target is 22psi and im hitting 18-20 easy never the 22. and after i do this a few times in wot it will throw the code. limp mode comes on and i dont get over factory boost. i clear the code out car is just fine again no issues until i do 3-5 wot pulls still pushing the same boost and it throws the code. ive checked all vacuum lines. waste gates are in normal position. i really cant find any thing that can cause a boost or vacuum leak. and a 2-3 psi loss isnt something im anal about. car is a daily driver and a have fun every now and again.

I can’t really comment on coding out a 30ff, but I suspect a lot of people would be interested if that was possible.

On another note...I don’t think mhd stage 1+ goes over about 15 psi or so...so you may have something else going on. Plus if you can’t hit boost target and you think you’ve checked everything else then it’s then it could be solenoids or the turbos night just be cratered...

I have a 335i coupe and from my personal experience which I have to do when I have time and money. Usually I have bought a lot of stuff from burger Motorsports and some dude told me he fixed his 30ff code. Checking : boost solenoids, canisters, vacuum hoses, your inlets and outlets. Especially if you running any mods. & make sure maintenance up to date! Before you fuck up stuff you could have prevented don't let the snowball effect take place.

I maintenance the crap out of my car. I'm a technician for a living and normally on lunch I always pull my car in and check it over. I've thought about boost solenoids but just haven't gotten around to replacing. I'm the second owner on the car and the original owner has had all records showing prior maintenance recalls and everything that's been done. Driving wise. Turbos seem to be healthy. They spool almost instantly and hold boost and I've read some where before that mhd should be like 18 psi 12 at redline. I'm not sure why mine shows 22 target boost. It's not custom tune. It's the regular stage 1 +

MHD Stage 1+ will target up to 18psi
