Boost Guage Install 4 PSI MAX?
I got a boost gauge and found a few threads on how to install it. Everyone said just find one of the vacuum lines, put a T in it and that's it. I also know that the cheap line that comes with it will not be that accurate but I can't get a reading above 3 psi on this thing.
Did I do something wrong? Should I use a different vacuum line?
The car feels really strong!
Its a AE TII with a Bonez downpipe and a Bonez intake. No other mods.
I included pics!

use a different line, or better yet a nipple directly off of the manifold.
looks like the line you used is going to the ACV, i wouldnt use those rats nest connections

That made a huge difference!!! I came off the BOV line. Now it sits around -15 to -20 when idling and boost to around 6 psi when I really get on it. Is that about right for a TII unmodified?
Now I just have to email the manufacture because the minute I hooked up the power for light it flickered and now won't come back on. GRRRRRR!!
