Changed BCA, got part from dealer, seams to work better, but still not like it was, I now can get boost but only if I got my foot on the floor. I live 20 minutes north of Pgh PA. and we have mountains everywhere. This car when I got it would pull these hills in overdrive under boost, now it wants to down shift out of overdrive, gauge only makes about 2 to 5 psi of boost, should be 10. Any ideas????
