First, make sure you have the MBC hooked up correctly(which it sounds like it isn't). I can't tell you which side of your MBC is inlet/outlet but the inlet side "should" be T'd from the BOV line and the outlet should to the wastegate.
Second, is your type S vented? If so get the recirculation kit. Nuff said on that.

dude that stands for Manual Boost Controller. My guess is you hooked it up wrong. Make sure that all the hoses are hooked up securely and correctly.
