The gauge sits at zero, it doesnt sit under because this is strictly a boost gauge, no vacuum. Ill try relocating it. I should still be boosting 8 psi, but anyway i think im gonna move on to tuning

yea i dont have experience with those....i didnt see if you moved your wg line to the im yet, but that may help as well to get you closer to the 8psi. the way it is connected to the compressor it will crack early and you will also loose boost through your piping so it will never show 8psi on the boost guage hooked to your im

IntegraKarim

Thanks but how could i gain extra boost just by moving the wastegate to the IM?

i think what hes saying is that depending on where you boost guage is hooked up to it may show higher or lower boost than you actually getting, for example, if there is vacuum line on the turbo itself and the boost guage was hooke dup there it wold show higher than if it was a vacumme line at the end of the intake manifold(which is where it should be), your waste gate should also be hooked up at the last possible vacumme line on the intake manifold. Ig you had your wastegate set at the turbo and the boost gauge set at the intake than its going to be a different reading.

Ill try changing the vacuum line from wastegate to the intake manifold, see if anything good happens God willing

Here are some pictures. Should I hook vacuum line thats from wastegate to turbo, to wastegate to FPR line instead? Or would brake booster line be better?

in that 3rd pic it looks like you're missing something like a cross member...are you running w/o that? also i hope these are pics before you drove it, because the flange on the dp doesnt look like its been welded. isnt there something else on there you can tap into? i have mine hooked up where the pcv used to be hooked up, and the bov going to the nipple just to the right of it, then the boost guage is tapped into one of the nipples on the back.

also looks like the vacuum port on ur turbo is just open with nothing connected to it...get a plug in there

ososlohatch

the wastegate is hooked up straght to the turbo and those integra dont come with cross members :P could be the w/g or the bov .. just a guess

IntegraKarim

Cross member huh? Anyway yeah there is something going to the turbo port, if i removed it and put it to the IM would i still have to plug up that? Cause I have two lines on my BoV and only one is hooked up right now. Anyway im not sure about all the nipples youve hooked up the lines too but the downpipe has a flange welded onto it and then thats bolted to the flange on the turbo.
