well, it started again last night, i set the base pressure for 50 psi, it runs and idols ok, i have to hook up the vacuum sorce for the rrfpr, along with check to see why i can not build boost, i think my wastegate is stuck open, i have to look into that soon, also i have a good size exhaust leak, and that needs to be fixed, i bought some hardware at advance and it is all junk, got some new stuff today from napa, and now i should be in buisness, still trying to get the car outside this weekend, but right now i am not sure if that will happen or not, another crazy busy weekend ahead of me

yeah, all good so far.... just not building boost yet, for some reason, i have to look into the wastegate, and also i am going to check my intercooler piping, i have a pritty good intake leak with that indy manifold, so i have some work ahead of me this weekend, going to fix a small exhaust leak also.... i adjusted the wastegate this morning, but i dont see it moving so i am thinking the intake is leaking alot, cousing no boost... that is priority this weekend...
