Here are a few pics of the hoses where I am having problems. The sensor for the gauge is by the charcoal canister. Where did I go wrong?

i went out and looked at mine and i think your like that comes from the sending unit is supposed to go somewhere else mine hooks up to the thing that you have blocked off....where in alabama are you

ahh im in hoover well if you dont have anything to do later today and want to take a trip into pelham we have a drift meet at the pelham civic center next to the ampitheater...
i think i can help fix your problem if you come out my setup was similar....around 4:30

Yeah, it seems as though the B,ham area has quite a few 7's, but I have only met one person here that has one.

i was just at a shop the other day getting a new line installed...(didnt have the right tools) and he had 2FDs, 2FCs, and 1 FB it was amazing...


i know about 3 guys with FCs and a couple of FDs that are running mainly...i havent seen any TIIs besides a couple in Hville and urs but as far as i know im the only one in the bham area with a well running FC... out drift team is called ALDrift we have a website called ALDrift.org the main guys have 240s with sr20s and right now im the only 7 on the team...

Can you post a pic of how yours is run?

Here are the online instructions. Why would You hook up a boot gauge to the fpr?

You cannot use all those T's in there.
That's why the BOV will never trigger.

How would you suggest to get around using them? I reworked it and everything is in working order now.

Thanks

Keep the BOV on the straightest path.

Fuck the stock boost sensor - it can use one of the "legs" of the T.
In fact, the stock line has a restrictor pill in it.
Running the stock boost sensor through a leg will dampen the pulses similarly.

This goes the same for the boost gauge.

The t that came with the gauge has a restrictor that runs to the sensor. I got it to work, but I will try to clean it up and give the bov a straighter path.

Thanks
