I posted this at dsmtalk too.

I tried installing my Hallman MBC on my 92 GSX today, but it won't boost over 10 PSI no matter how much I adjust it. I guess I installed it wrong. Can someone tell me what I did wrong?

Here's how it's set up.

I removed the 2 hoses from this thing, then disconnected it from the plug completely

Here's the boost controller

Here's the T-fitting (white) I tapped onto the line between the BOV and intake manifold

I pulled off the stock hose and put the one from the boost controller onto this T-fitting. The turbo is to the right but out of the picture.

Someone please tell me where I went wrong? Thanks.
 
There was one there stock. So when I remove it should I just connect the boost controller directly to the wastegate actuator, and buy a connector for the other 2 hoses and connect those together?
 
You can get rid of the other 2 hoses... just plug the hole.. take everything off the wastegate and only connect the MBC to it... the other lines went to the BCS and you dont need them now... just be sure to plug the one...
