alright, i have a FD with the sequential turbo simplification done. everything seems to work decent. but when the car is still fairly cold it seems like it gets a full 10psi on the primary and secondary. once the car warms up it only pulls 7psi on the primary and 10psi on the secondary. is there anything u guys can think of that i might have overlooked???

A loose vaccuum line somewhere in the system. That won't be fun tracking down.

If something weren't routed correctly, then I don't think he would get 10 and 10 when the engine is cold.

You should test your solenoids both while they are cold and heated. I've read about cases where they failed once they got hot (never experienced it myself).

Yup. Check the solenoid back by the air control valve.
