| I tried 4 line yesterday none of them showed me any boost, I don't know wut fking lines to cut any more, Or should i T in the Line that goes from turbo compressor to the actuator for boost readings? but that would not show the lag im guessing.
Also i got a HKS actuator, and I have now idea wut PSI im set at grrr....
And also this might be a sutpid question but this is my 1st turbo car, when i rev the engine lets say to 4k rpm should the turbo spool up too in nutral and BOV go off? Because i revved it up to 4k yesterday but dint hear anything from the BOV. | |

| reving it up in the parking load will not get you boost. there needs to be a load on the engine. | |

| From the fuel regulator to intake mani, i Ted in there it reads -20 psi lol until i hit gass then it goes to 0, that is what the instructions stated, tomarow ima put a fitting in my cold pipe and hook up one vaccum line to it and put a T in that vaccum line... | |

| do you mean 20 hg? vacuum? if its on the twenty under the 0 then its reading vacuum, thats what you want at idle. and as you accelerate it goes up to zero and passed it when you boost. . . if so you have it hooked up right | |
