My KNIGHTSPORT turbo can't pass 0.5 bar

I just upgrade my TII's turbo to a kinghtsport turbo. I discovered the turbo cann't pass 0.5 bar even though I have a Profec B. It worse than stock turbo. I checked all the stuffs and all here. Should I get a larger injectors for this turbo or my boost controller have problem. Anyone experience this? Thanks

i have no experience...but my guess would be that it is a boost controller issue..7lbs. of boost for a aftermarket turbo does nto sound right..are u using the stock turbo manifold? check your vacuum lines to the wastegate and your boost controller.

remember 7 psi on a bigger compressor is more than 7psi on a stock comp side.
