TID question?

I did my TID yesterday. I got the parts from home depot and did it like most of the people with those reducers from 2" to 3" and stuff like that.
I had to remove my air pump also, so now i don't have her either.

Now my question is how come i'm still runing 7psi?? With Intake and custom made TID, shouldn't i be runing at least 10psi?
When i put intake on the stock TID, i maybe gained a pound, and now nothing.

Is there a some kind of problem here or should i adjust something??

That just means the downpipe was a bigger restriction then the stock TID was. no more air can go in if it can't go out. if you get a downpipe the boost will go up alot!! (not necessary a good thing!...)

next time you take off the TID see if the wheel on turbo spins freely and check the shaft play. if your turbo is off the car check for cracks in the manifold and turbine of the turbo. IMO i don't think ur turbo is broken though.=)
