You are running on borrowed time and no amount of turbo calibrations is going to fix this - it is very common for those turbo's to do this. if you had the mandate removed it wouldn't be a issue as the turbo almost never swings that high but it is needed with the systems functioning.

also driving around at 5 and higher on the differential pressure is extremely bad. you are destroying your engine from the inside out - food for thought.

Not that I haven't seen new parts br bad but it's a new turbo.



the lever seems to have perfect full range of motion. it glides across real good and it doesn't feel like it hangs up, it feels like it hits a wall and clunks at either side.... it's just when it clunks all the way to the right, the hole is lined up perfectly at that point.



I know you can't see the hole in the pic but that's dead on lined up in that position.

Code is still coming up today so calibration didn't do anything.
