Well tonight I checked all my fittings and they were tight and were not leaking any boost, but on the bright side I got my fuel gauge to work

Now I just need to put a smaller pulley on and then maybe I can get some boost.

i checked the fittings, and did not find a leak anywhere. as for the blow off valve, it was mounted on the pipe when i got it just like the it was when it did work for the last guy. I don't think the compressor is bad because to kit worked for the last guy when he took it off.

i can't find a leak but i guess i can still glue the fittings today.

glue might get kinda messyu might try to use the t-bolt style clamps they work best, man this situation is frustrating even for me.....something is WRONG. whats the fuel looking like under WOT? does it spike low?

Well tonight I double checked every joint and then I glued them. So now I have to wait and let everything dry and see it there is any difference.

I am still saying it is the gauge. A mechanical gauge will zero out with the engine off, and you said yours is not. I just finished re-installing mine, and felt like I didnt get the same power I had last time, may just be in my head. Before I had no stall, so you could really feel the boost come in at about 3K. Now with the stall it pulls harder off the line, and almost feels like it has less power. We will see what the track times say.
