i dont have a nipple on the compressor houseing
the car just doesnt pull.....something isnt hooked up right......
is there any diagrams anyone has that i can look at?


my car runs like ----.....when i get to 5 psi....my engine light comes on....code 3 ( mapsensor)
and it spits and sputters.....

the damn car is slower than it was b4 turbo....

it takes the boost a while to build up to 5 psi.....it doesnt pull..

something is wrong......

and wtf is check valve

I do notice tho that with my car at idle and i rev it up a little....the bov whistles for a while after the car goes back down to 700 rpm....doesnt that supposed to stay shut until your boosting and let off?
