Can anyone guide me in EVERYTHING that need to be capped off or plugged, etc to avoid boost leaks?
Justin says it HAS to be bleeding boost somewhere AFTER the MAF, cause its over reporting.
I do have my manifold plugged in top from the PVC hose it had, and both my Valve covers have breather filters on them.
Thanks guys!

Correct me I may be wrong but I was told stock springs wouldn't hold 12 lbs boost on a ZO6 cam. That's why I had patriot golds.

Is your gauge reading boost from the intake manifold? I agree with the move to br7ef plugs gapped at 30. Tuning yourself is the way to go. There are a couple on here that will help you with your tune and getting it right. If you buy Efilive, you can email logs and get help finishing your tune with blackbear AND tweak on your own as your skills improve. Jus my. 02

MAF Placement
I will go to napa and order some BR7EFs, no one here has those in stock.
My boost/vac gauge and BOV are referenced through the Intake manifold nipple.
My valve springs are Yellow LS6, not the stock ones.
Im going to give it some last trys with justin, hope we can get it right, he seems to think it might be that my maf is being fooled (SEE PICTURES)
He says my maf is reading about 19 psi of boost.. but im only doing about 13, so its putting in way more gas and pulling timing. He told me to rotate my MAF 90º and see if that changes anything...
P.S. My MAF was pushed off the housing while doing a highway pull, so i put that huge zip tie around it to prevent it from happening again

on NNBS:
Hose from Drivers Valve Cover goes to Intake Manifold
Hose from Passengers Valve Cover goes to Intake Tube
Both are capped and i have breather filters on both valve covers.
