turbo/bov problem

I'm not getting hardly any psi from my turbos. Bov's are loud as hell, i haven't done anything to em except installed an amemiya intake. boost gauge reads about 2 psi. sometimes will pop up to 5 psi. but I can hear bov's like crazy even with no boost.

On another note, I'm having a small idling problem. idle bounces every once in a while and it will drop down near stalling but it always catches. when it's idling correctly I'm getting 15 in vac now. it'll bounce while the idle is bouncing (dropping lower). I don't know if this is due to the installation of a jspec knock sensor or what. I do know my check engine light stays on until the car is warmed up. ran codes and gives me knock sensor.

Make sure you dont have a boost leak before anything else...You might be thinking that the air is comming out of the BOV's when it might be commin from a leak.
