Unhappy Changed stock mp to pettit and now I only get 4psi.

I am guessing its a vaccuum line somewhere but I wanted to ask the forum first. I have had the car in storage and finally took it out. I have been running it a couple times a month while it was in storage. Now I took it to a shop, a friend of mine just swapped out the old mp with the new one. Thats it he didnt touch nothing else.

I took the car for a spin and I am only able to get four pounds. First turbo hits 4 the transition just about stays at four then it gets four again. I have a profec B and tried every combo to get it to change and nothing..

Should I just start changing the hoses or is it something else? The car itself only has 16,3000 original miles and I just started to mod it last summer.

I just find it weird that it happened the same time.

Anyone have ideas?

I could use some advice before I start this. Anyone have a site with detailed instructions on how to change vacuum lines?

That site also has loads more info if you didn't know. I've never done vacuum hoses myself though.

Ok, make sure he put the grounds back on if any on the exhuasts. Is there any restricitons in the exhuast. I know when I gutted my main cat i only got like 5 psi because I didn't empty all the junk in it and it was clogging the exhuast.
