i did hit it with a steathascope, sounds loudest under the pasenger valve cover.
i redid all my vacume lines and i still have no boost control. i can unhook the lines or just one or the other line to the waste gate and there is no effect at all. i am going to have to pull it off and do some bench testing on it.

Steathascopes are the **** if it werent for one of those i would have torn down the car i got form F8l instead i just replace the alternator!

things are coming along.
got the boost controler figured out. i am an idiot. the waste gate has vacume ports on both sides, so 2 top and 2 bottom. i didn't see the other set. i pluged those extra holes and now it kicks ***.
i tried some settings diferent settings on my boost controler and it is working great now.
off = 9.9psi
10% = 11.1
20% = 12.8
30% = 15.3
40% = 17.2
50% = 19.8
thats as high as i went, before i would see 17-18psi with the cut out closed so i have prety good control now. the waste gate also has an adjustable spring on it so i can tighten it up if i do hit a top psi. then if that isn't enough i can slap a stronger spring in there. i can prety much pick my boost now.
9.9psi minimum is prety good i'd say. i still need to hog out the area where i welded on the waste gate pipes too, with that done i bet the min boost goes even lower.
lag is not a problem anymore, i just hit it with a 100shot out of the hole. i am using the mega to control my nitrous and it works great.
the mega acts as.
a wot switch(90% thrrotle turns on nitrous)
a window switch(turning on nitrous at 2200rpm, off at 6500rpm)
a boost window switch(anti lag, kills nitrous at any preset boost level, 8psi right now)
and it adds fuel for me thru the stock injectors.
it really works well i have it programed and wired up so i dont need the laptop to run it. just flip a switch in my council and it does the rest.
