Re:bov question?
 
what type of bov?
it is most likely leaking. cover it at idle and see if the vacuum is normal. also check the tubing you used for cracks/cuts/holes.

Re:bov question?
 
i dont think its the bov because when i unhook something else like the wastegate or something and hook the bov up it works fine.

Yeah it's either a leak or your tee'ing too many things off a weak vac source
