its probally just sumthing stupid...
even the smallest pin hole in a vaccum line can cause a car to not build any boost....
you do have all the vac. lines hooked up to a good source right?

yeah spud, i thought it was the bov but it is tight and not leaking, i can hear air though blowing from someware around my throttle body, thougth it was the bov. but am not sure now.... i have to look at it again sometime.

i am sure it is something retarted that i am missing and will find it and say i am a ****ing dumb ***.... lol, usually that is the majority of my problems anyway....

well drove to my moms today.... not even 1-8th mile, but anyways.....

drove it and boosted a mild three lbs, i have came to the conclusion that it is a leak someware, the turbo is alittle bit bigger than my old one, and does have alittle bit more lag, it is ok for me, i do not mind it..... but when the boost did hit, i missed it so much btw, when i shifted into second it was enough to light the tires alittle bit.... not bad for the first run down the road. looking into intake leaks tomorrow morning....


VRRROOOOM VRRRROOOOM PSSSSHHHHHH......

Glad to see it is running. KInd of sucks you have a boost leak somewhere though. Not sure how I feel about the suby scoop, but I bet it is at least somewhat functional since it probably flows air right over the turbo. Did I see something about you painting your car? What color you gonna do? Congrats on getting it moving again. Engine bay looks pretty clean.
