boost gauge not reading since...

Just removing the air pump and air valve, installed new gasket/blockoffplate, ran new vac line to n370 from the middle of the three vac hard lines and then looped the two outer together. start it up and no reading when driving, checked and no vac leaks. Mighty vac'd sensor and no leaks, no leaks on vac line, getting proper vac from source line for n370 and it changes when i push the throttle. Removed the fcd, still no change. any thoughts?

and does the n370 only control the gauge and over boost? if so i am not terribly worried since a boost gauge will be reinstalled shortly i just want to make sure it not a map sensor or something weird. Again i wouldnt imagine since the fcd just changes the readings but let me know

THanks
Ben

you need to take pics and then go into MS paint and mark the pics up so we can see exactly what you are talking about.
