    Hello I have a GTP that I changed the coupling because of some play in the nose piece. Sounded like rocks rolling inside.

    Replacement went well, but as I drive it at 2500 rpm and 40mpg the boost reads 100% and engine does not seem to be pulling. at 3000 rpm the same thing!
    Help! Any Ideas?

    Take a look at the boost control soleniod by the throttle body. Did you forget to plug this in?

    When you say boost says 100%, I'm assuming you are looking at the commanded soleniod.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    Please reread what I said.

    Take a look at the electrical connector. If the commanded is 100% and you are getting nothing..maybe you forgot to hook it up.
