Ok so we got the vaccum down.
No more boost leaks (ran some pvc piping)

we got the car idling normally, got the ghetto exhaust on.

turns out we need more check valves, which is why we couldn't hit boost properly.
Hit 2psi, engine cut out. So each set of check valves = 1psi; that said, we will need 12 check valves total to be able to run our 6psi safely

thank you all for your help! Will let you all know how it turns out tomorrow! Might include pics

no dude your way off. keep reading and learning. everyone who has posted in here has been on the right track, except dont use the same vacuum source for bov as u do the wastegate... other then that read! the proper way to install the check valves is simple. take pic of your engine bay if u STILL cant get it.

10-1 vortech FMU

You realize that at 3 psi, your now are 30plus psi higher fuel pressure? 6 psi = 60psi?

This is going to fuckyour ---- up.

Thats ALOT of extra fuel.

im having almost the same problem
except, the nipple on the compressor housing doesn't work for some reason, when i connect it to the wastegate, the wastegate doesn't open

and is the turbo suppose to spin freely on idle?
i got it to spin for a while this morning, but then it stopped

when i connect the wastegate to another vac source (fpr) it opens all the time

theres no boost reading on the gauge, i don't even feel it when i drive

maybe you can help
