No, if you hooked up Version 2 correctly you should be able to control the boost to whatever level you want assuming your boost controller is working properly.

I use version 2 and it works perfectly for me. I have a feeling it is not the way you set it up, but a component in your setup which is causing your problem.

hey josh any thing that i should check. i mean i double checked and the connection are just like the drawing. i check to see if i had a leak were the small plastic tube meets the white coupleing, i actuallly zip tied that so it would come apart that was fine, i hope that the boost control is not bad, i bought it from a member off the forum. about a yr ago , that would be a waisted 500. so any sugestion.

Hmmm... well the most obvious would be making sure that there are no pills in the line, which there shouldn't be because you changed out all the vacuum lines right?

It is a fairly simple set up, so the only other thing that I can think of is your controller. I am NOT saying this the the definite problem because we all know this car is so figity, but is there any friends of yours cars you can test that controller on? If not an easy way to test is make a home depot mbc and look it up like version 2. See if you can achieve your projected boost and if so then obviously everything else is working and there is a problem with the controller. The link below will show you how to make one. They are like 5 bucks and your local home depot/lowes should have everything you need.

goodluck and sorry I can't help more,
